The 2025 South Dakota Coyotes football team will represent the University of South Dakota as a member of the Missouri Valley Football Conference (MVFC) during the 2025 NCAA Division I FCS football season.

Johansen was promoted from being the Coyotes defensive coordinator last season, and will be assisted by first year offensive coordinator Tim Morrison and first year defensive coordinator Billy Kirch. Morrison was also promoted within the program, as he was the Coyotes tight ends coach in 2024. Kirch joins the program after coaching at NAIA Northwestern University in Iowa for ten seasons.
