Bronco football team faces Sioux Falls for last time

Next season, the Sioux Falls Cougars will move out of the NAIA and go to the next level of NCAA College Football. For their opponents the move can't come too soon.

Two seasons ago, the Cougars came to Hastings and jumped out to a 14–0 first quarter lead.

It was an even game thereafter. Sioux Falls escaped with a 30–17 win, went onto to take the national title and achieved a sweet repeat last season.

They'll take a 32 game win streak into Lloyd Wilson Field for Saturday's 1:00 game against the Broncos.

"That would be nice especially when they are leaving to come through with a victory against them," said Bronco receiver Mike Novicki.

"We would like to bounce back from the Northwestern loss and show that again we are that this year we are a playoff team," said Bronco defensive back Zach Carlton.

The Broncos turned in some great plays like these against the Cougars in this game two years ago. Sioux Falls has won 3 of the last 4 NAIA National Titles and hasn't lost a league game since 2005.

The Broncos celebrate alumni weekend Saturday. They would like nothing better than to treat their graduates to an upset win against a Sioux Falls team that hasn't lost a game since 2007.
