"The addition of Murray State expands the MVFC footprint and sets up the league for new rivalries," said David Harris, UNI director of athletics. "The MVFC is the strongest conference in the FCS subdivision and we are pleased that Murray State wants to commit their program to the high level of competition that exists within our league.
