This season North Dakota officially played without a mascot name after the decision to retire "Fighting Sioux" as the school's mascot amid controversy.[1] However, the school is fighting to keep the mascot name and some continue to use it.[2]

This was also North Dakota's final year as a member of the Great West as they became a full member of the Big Sky Conference in July 2012.
