Trailing 28-27 in the closing minutes, North Dakota (4-7, 2-5 Big Sky) marched 62 yards in nine plays to set up Taubenheim's game winner with 4 seconds left, then recovered a fumble after the kick off to cement the win.
Garman had 28 carries and two touchdowns, including a 78-yarder in the second quarter, to help North Dakota snap a three-game skid and get its first-ever win over Northern Arizona (7-4, 5-2).
