Entering the Big Sky Conference this fall, the University of North Dakota football team is on the cusp of the biggest seasons in program history. Each week on UNDSports.com, follow the team through fall camp as it prepares for the season.

It's the Opening Drive.

This week freshmen move into residence halls and meet their new teammates. It's a busy week of adjustment for the newcomers. For the veterans, it's another chance to return to their football family, play the game they love and earn a spot in the line-up. Some, however, still have to wait for their turn.
