The only game of the 2020 college football season for North Dakota State was a 39-28 victory over Central Arkansas on Saturday, and it brought some good news for one of their top NFL draft prospects.
Offensive tackle Dillon Radunz got a post-game surprise in the locker room after the game, receiving the news that he’s been invited to the 2021 Senior Bowl.
The premier all-star game for top NFL prospects who have already received their college degrees, the Senior Bowl has proven to be a huge opportunity for smaller-school prospects like Radunz to boost their stock with pro scouts. It did so for another Bison alumni in quarterback Carson Wentz, who parlayed his performance in Mobile into being the No. 2 overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft.
Watch Radunz react to the surprise:

Already one of the top offensive tackle prospects in next year’s class, a strong showing in Mobile next year would solidify him in as a first-round talent in the 2021 class.
