Hoeven: Welcome to ESPN's College Gameday in Fargo

FARGO, N.D. – Senator John Hoeven tomorrow will join the North Dakota State University (NDSU) community to cheer on the Bison football team in their game against the Delaware State University Hornets and to join fans downtown to check out ESPN’s College Gameday in Fargo. ESPN will host a three-hour show in Fargo tomorrow, Saturday, September 21.

“Mikey and I again want to congratulate the Bison and Coach Craig Bohl on their winning record and to wish them well in their matchup tomorrow with the Delaware State Hornets. With the Bison’s selection as the site for this week’s ESPN Gameday broadcast, they have put North Dakota in the national spotlight, giving us a wonderful opportunity to show the rest of the country what a great place North Dakota is.

“Mikey and I look forward to attending tomorrow’s game to cheer on the two-time FCS National Champions. Go Bison!”

Hoeven wrote to ESPN President John Skipper and Executive Vice President for Production John Wildhack to press for NDSU’s selection to host ESPN’s College Gameday.
