North Dakota to visit Huskies in 2018

Jun 11, 2013 - 6:23 PM Grand Forks, ND (Sports Network) - The University of North Dakota football team will play Washington for the first time during the 2018 season.

UND's announcement on Tuesday of the Sept. 15, 2018 game in Seattle comes one week after the Big Sky Conference school announced a game against another Pac-12 opponent, Utah, during the 2017 season,

"We're taking a proactive approach in lining up these future games with FBS opponents and our players will benefit from being able to play in some of the best venues college football has to offer," UND coach Chris Mussman said. "Like Utah, Washington is a storied program with lots of tradition and we have a great alumni base in Seattle, so that should give our alums out there a unique opportunity to watch us play in their own city."
