Head coach Travis Johansen meets with the media ahead of the Missouri Valley Football Conference (MVFC) opener this weekend on the road at No. 1-ranked North Dakota State. 

"(NDSU is) a good team. For us it's our next chance against a good test to see where we're at. Both programs are in a position to say this is a measuring stick for what this season could look like moving forward. It's definitely going to have implications in the Valley."

Kickoff is slated for 1 p.m. from the Fargodome and can be watched on either ESPN+ or Midco Sports with Jay Elsen and Andre Fields on the call from Fargo. You can listen live to the voice of the Coyotes John Thayer along side him Gary Culver and Jerry Palleschi on the radio call on Coyote Sports Network.
