steady NDSU veteran linebacker with winning-program DNA
Oscar Benson is a 6-foot-1, 215-pound senior linebacker who entered the 2025 season as part of the Bison’s rebuilt linebacker room after graduating from a championship-caliber NDSU program.[4][7][12] His appeal is less about flash and more about reliability, football IQ, and experience in a defense that values discipline and physicality; he also earned NFF Hampshire Honor Society recognition in 2025, a nice nod to his academics and character.[7] If you want a tough, well-coached, high-floor linebacker who understands winning habits, Benson fits the bill.
