BROOKINGS – The Dakota Marker is staying in town.

Taryn Christion had another solid game and the Jackrabbit defense came up with five takeaways as No. 10/8 South Dakota State handed second-ranked North Dakota State its first loss of the season, 33-21, during Missouri Valley Football Conference action Saturday afternoon.

The reigning MVFC co-champs played in front of a record crowd of 18,130 at Dana J. Dykhouse Stadium.

“I’m really proud of our football team,” said SDSU coach John Stiegelmeier, whose squad possessed the ball for more than 35 minutes and held a 473-337 advantage in total yards of offense. “There has been a lot of talk about what we said in the preseason and what other people said and a couple losses and stuff; and, I’ll tell you what, there’s one population I care more about than anybody and that’s the guys in the locker room.

“I thought they came this week to play; they did a great job in preparation. We beat a very good football team. North Dakota State deserves their rank, deserves all the things they’ve accomplished; and I’m proud of our team for having won the football game.”

SDSU put together an 11-play, 86-yard drive in the fourth quarter to take control.

Christion hit Jake Wieneke on a slant route for a 14-yard gain on fourth-and 4 from the NDSU 33-yard-line. It was the first fourth-down conversion allowed on nine attempts for the Bison defense.

Christion faked a run on the next play, before going over the top to Dallas Goedert, who tipped the ball to himself at the goal line and then secured it for a 19-yard touchdown.

That made it 33-21 with 7:06 remaining.

“That was huge, that was huge,” Stiegelmeier said of the drive, which lasted nearly 7 minutes. “I can’t remember all the plays, but I think we mixed in some run in that. We couldn’t run the ball in the first half; our guys made some adjustments. You have to do that – you have to be able to run and pass the ball. I think that result and Goedert’s circus catch so, yeah, huge series.”

Christion was 3-of-4 for 44 yards and added a 6-yard rush during the series. Isaac Wallace picked up 26 yards on the ground and Brady Mengarelli added 15.

SDSU’s Marshon Harris forced NDSU receiver Darrius Shepherd to fumble on the Bison’s ensuing possession, and Jackrabbit Mason Leiseth fell on the loose ball at the SDSU 23.

Zy Mosley picked off NDSU quarterback Easton Stick with 1:58 to go, and the Jackrabbits knelt out the clock after that.

Christion was 23-of-33 for 329 yards with two TDs and ran for 25 yards with another score.

“Taryn did a great job of competing,” said Stiegelmeier “You measure yourself against your competition and, again, North Dakota State’s defense and their players, the way they’re coached – it’s a good football team. So, yeah, he rose up and had a great game.

“I thought he did a great job of buying more time with his feet; that was the biggest thing he did today when things weren’t there. And our receivers did a good job of adjusting.”

The Bison entered the game plus-14 in turnover margin. They were minus-4 Saturday.

“Obviously, we didn’t play very well today,” said North Dakota State coach Chris Klieman. “Give South Dakota State credit; they did some really good things that affected us and they had a good game plan. I told the guys, I don’t question our effort; our effort’s as good as there is in college football. We didn’t execute today. We had some opportunities where we couldn’t get off the field on defense; and, obviously, when you have the turnover bug and you turn it over especially in short fields with that good of an offense, bad things are going to happen. We will not point a finger at anybody – offense, defense. We were not very good executing on offense; we were not very good executing on defense; and we had too many penalties in special teams.

“So I’m not going to get into ‘do we have to do this or that with the offense and defense?’ It’s one game. It’s a big game because it’s the Marker game, but by no means is our season all of a sudden in jeopardy. All of our goals, everything we have is in front of us and we have a great group of seniors.”

Christion capped a seven-play, 75-yard drive with a 14-yard TD toss to Jacob Brown on the game’s opening possession.

The Bison got on the board via Stick’s 4-yard pass to Connor Wentz with 50 seconds left in the first.

The Jackrabbits moved the ball to the NDSU 4 midway through the second, before getting a 21-yard field goal from Chase Vinatieri.

Jordan Brown had the game’s first takeaway, intercepting Stick at the SDSU 40-yard-line.

Christion and Goedert hooked up for pickups of 22 and 25 yards on the next two plays. Christion eventually scored on a 1-yard run to make it 17-7 12 seconds before halftime.

NDSU quickly cut it to a one-score game after the break, with Stick finding Ty Brooks for a 24-yard touchdown a little more than 3 minutes into the period.

SDSU was stuffed on fourth-and-1 at the Bison 33 on its next possession, but the Jackrabbit defense countered with another takeaway.

Kellen Soulek hit Stick, forcing a fumble, and Alex Romensko scooped up the ball and returned it 6 yards to the Bison 30.

Christion picked up 12 yards on the ground and 13 through the air on a completion to Marquise Lewis.

On second down, Mikey Daniel bulled his way into the end zone from 5 yards out to again make it a 10-point game – 24-14 – with 5:45 left in the third.

It marked the ninth touchdown this season – and 10th of his career – for Daniel, a sophomore and former Bobcat.

Later, Makiah Slade stepped in front of a Stick pass and returned the interception 23 yards to the NDSU 35, which set up Vinatieri’s 41-yard field goal. That put SDSU ahead 27-14 with 1:47 to play in the third.

Vinatieri went 3-for-3 on PAT kicks and 2-for-2 on field goals on the day.

The Jackrabbits had a shot to break things open in the fourth, forcing a Bison punt; however, Adam Anderson fumbled after signaling for a fair catch and Jaylaan Wimbush recovered to give the ball to the visitors at the SDSU 14.

Two plays later, Stick maneuvered his way into the end zone from 11 yards out to cut the deficit to 27-21 with 13:56 to play.

Goedert finished with 116 yards and the TD on seven receptions. Brown had five catches covering 59 yards.

Mengarelli ran for 64 yards.

Christian Rozeboom made six tackles and Anthony Wahsington five. Austin Smenda and Ryan Earith both recorded a sack.

For NDSU, Stick was 16-of-28 for 229 yards with two TDs and three INTs, and ran for 28 yards and a score with one fumble lost. Brooks ran six times for 49 yards. Shepherd had 95 yards on seven grabs.

North Dakota State (8-1, 5-1) plays host to South Dakota on Saturday at 2:30 p.m. in the Fargodome.

South Dakota State (6-2, 4-2) closes out its regular-season home slate taking on Illinois State on Saturday at 2 p.m. for Military Appreciation Day.

The Jackrabbits have outscored their opponents a combined 147-75 during a three-game winning streak.

“We’re going to enjoy this one for about half a day and then go to work (Sunday) morning,” Stiegelmeier noted. “Right now, our offense has had three amazing games in a row. Our defense rose up today, so we’re going to come to work Monday – our players will – with a lot of confidence.”

Jake Wieneke had two catches for 59 yards against the Bison.

He pushed his career total to 4,730 receiving yards and passed the legendary Jerry Rice (4,693 yards from 1981-84 at Mississippi Valley State) for third place in FCS history.

In all NCAA divisions – FBS, FCS, II and III – Wieneke moved from 15th to 10th in career receiving yards.
