The North Iowa Bison came ready to compete as they hosted an early game with GTRA to kick off their football season on Friday, Aug. 21.

It had been two years since the Bison last saw the Titans in a 66-20 loss in 2024. This time around, it was anyone’s game, but GTRA was first on the board with a touchdown and two-point conversion within the first four minutes of Friday’s game.
