The Colorado Buffaloes and North Dakota State Bison meet in week 1 college football action from Folsolm Field on Thursday. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best bets for this game. Here’s a Colorado vs North Dakota State Prediction.
Can Colorado Avoid the Upset?
Deion Sanders has made sure that Colorado has been the talking point of college football this offseason, but all of that doesn’t matter if they lose this game. If they lose this game, there are going to be some early grumblings about if this team is led by the right coach. Under center for Colorado is Shedeur Sanders, and he is one of the better quarterbacks in college football. At times last season, the line didn’t protect him, but the hope is this year will be different. The running back room looks a whole lot different but Ohio State Buckeyes transfer Dallan Hayden is going to a ton of opportunities and out wide it’s all about Jimmy Ward and Travis Hunter who both could be All-Americans this season.
On defense is where, Colorado also hopes to take a big step forward. The star of the show is Travis Hunter, but he is going to need some help from the others. Shilo Sanders and Cam’Ron Silmon-Craig are back in the secondary, and both have a ton of pressure on them.
Can NDSU Pull off the Upset?
Normally, Power Five teams don’t schedule NDSU because they are afraid of the upset, and this NDUS team feels they can do that. Last year, NDSU finished with an 11-4 record before losing in the FCS semifinal. NDSU has a lot of their talent back from last season, but also lost a few key pieces. Three of the starters on the offensive line are gone, and with a team that is usually built on a strong offensive line, that could be a major problem. The quarterback duo of Cam Miller and Cole Payton are back, though, and both can be expected to have big games here. Last season, the Bison averaged 237.3 yards per game on the ground, and a lot of that comes with the quarterback play.
On defense this is a veteran-led team and the pressure is going to be on the defense to be good here. The top four tacklers from last year’s team are back, and in this game they need to try and create a couple of turnovers. If they can create that, they are going to be in good shape to be competitive here.
Why North Dakota State Will Beat Colorado
- Colorado has lost eight of its last nine games.
- The underdog has covered the spread in five of Colorado’s last six games.
- Colorado has failed to cover the spread in four of its last five games against non-FBS teams.
Colorado vs North Dakota State Prediction
Give me North Dakota State here and give me on the money line. College football is a team game, and NDSU is the best team. Sure, Colorado might have the better individual players, but I don’t think the Colorado defense is going to be making many stops in this game. This is an elite NDSU run offense, and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. This Colorado offense will have a couple of bad turnovers and NDSU is going to pull it out late. Back North Dakota State against the spread.

Our newsroom occasionally reports stories under a byline of “staff.” Often, the “staff” byline is used when rewriting basic news briefs that originate from official sources, such as a city press release about a road closure, and which require little or no reporting. At times, this byline is used when a news story includes numerous authors or when the story is formed by aggregating previously reported news from various sources. If outside sources are used, it is noted within the story.

Hoeven, Armstrong, Traynor speak on OBBB Rural Health Transformation Fund updates in ND
BISMARCK, N.D. (KFYR) – On Friday, North Dakota U.S. Senator John Hoeven, Governor Kelly Armstrong and Health and Human Services Commissioner Pat Traynor explained how the state plans to use millions of dollars from the Big Beautiful Bill’s Rural Health Transformation Fund to transform healthcare across the state.
They spoke extensively about the special session to allocate the funds, and confirmed that it is still tentatively set for Jan. 21.
The Big Beautiful Bill allocated $25 billion for rural healthcare nationwide. North Dakota received $500 million for five years and $200 million for the first year. There is still another $25 billion left to be spent, and North Dakota is hoping to receive an extra $500 million.
“I truly believe that with the plan we’re putting in place and the things we built that line up with that, we’ll get a billion dollars over five years,” said Hoeven.
Federal rules require the state to lock in contracts for the money by October first— a deadline officials say is driving the need for a special session.
In the first year, North Dakota will focus on retention grants to keep existing staff, technical assistance and consultants for rural hospitals, as well as telehealth equipment and home patient monitoring.
Governor Armstrong says the special session will include policy bills tied to how much federal rural health funding the state can earn.
“We’re going to have a physical fitness test for physical education courses, nutrition education, continuing education requirement for physicians, physician assistant licensure compact—which North Dakota has been doing, dealing with that since the heart of the oil boom and moving forward—and then an expanded scope of practice for pharmacists,” said Armstrong.
Hundreds of millions of dollars could reshape healthcare in rural North Dakota, and state leaders say the next few weeks are key to receiving and spending that money wisely.
The governor says he only wants to focus on bills related to the Rural Health Transformation Program during the special session and doesn’t intend to deal with other state issues during that time.
