We're joined in this bonus episode by North Dakota State University's Senior Associate Athletic Director for External Operations and Strategic Revenue, Troy Goergen.
We spoke with Troy in advance of Event No. 31 of the Around the World in 80 Sporting Events project that took host Doug Hill to Fargo for a NDSU football game in the Fargodome against the University of Northern Iowa.
During this Conversation, Troy shares what makes North Dakota State and greater-Fargo such a special place and helps us understand why this seemingly remote corner of the United States has become such a college football power (this season's shocking playoff exit aside).
