The 2007 North Dakota State Bison football team represented North Dakota State University in the 2007 NCAA Division I FCS football season. The team was led by fifth-year head coach Craig Bohl and played their homes games at the Fargodome in Fargo, North Dakota.

The Bison totaled 4,855 total yards of offense, an average of 441 yards per game.
