The Bucks are entering their third season as an indoor football franchise.
Bismarck opens its 2019 season at Grand Island against the Nebraska Danger. After a bye week, they will face the expansion Tucson Sugar Skulls on the road. They have a four-game home stand during the middle of the season, and do not have a road trip of more than two straight games. They twice face the Quad City Steamwheelers, who also moved over from CIF. The Bucks do not play the Arizona Rattlers nor the expansion San Diego Strike Force this season.
Each IFL team plays 14 games (seven home and seven away), and has three bye weeks. The Bucks byes come in weeks 2, 5, and 12. They play their home games at Bismarck Events Center at Bismark, North Dakota. Rod Miller is the team's head coach.
