Someone on the South Dakota State coaching staff may have been watching Little Giants in the hotel room last night.
While taking on the five-time defending DII champs North Dakota State Bison, South Dakota State pulled off the ole “Fumbrooskie” trick play.
Something straight out of “Little Giants”! This is how South Dakota St. just scored on NDSU…??? #Jackrabbits #Bison pic.twitter.com/Bl9bJPU5GP

Bunching the entire offense up before getting sent, QB Taryn Christian then took the snap and quickly handed the ball off to running back Brady Mengarelli, who was crouched behind the offensive line. Christion and WR Alex Wilde then ran to the right, distracting the defense.
Despite pulling off the trick play, South Dakota State did end up falling to NDSU 36-10.
