Former Solon standout Cam Miller has found his home at North Dakota State.

Miller and the Bison have an early 14-0 lead in the FCS national championship game live on ESPN vs. Montana State.

And Miller has had a hand - or make it two feet - involved in both scores.

After darting to the end zone from two years out to complete a 12-play, 75-yard drive that covered over seven minutes of the first quarter, Miller took the ball himself on a 64-yard run up the middle. 

That TD jaunt capped a five-play, 92-yard scoring drive for North Dakota State.

Miller is also 4-for-4 passing for 51 yards, rushing seven times for 84. 

The senior came into the game with over 3,000 yards passing and 31 touchdowns against just four interceptions, for a quarterback rating of 207.1.
