contributed photo Shauna Schmidt holds with pride the South Dakota border-marker "trophy" after the University of South Dakota football team (the Jackrabbits) won the annual "Marker" game versus the University of North Dakota Bison team. The loyalties and rivalries among those two teams runs deep and fierce. They will face off in the national college football championship game Jan. 8 in Frisco, Texas.
