St. Cloud State at Minnesota State-Mankato (Thursday)Winona State at Northern State (Thursday)Minot State at Sioux Falls

Coming into this game I think USF knows a lot more of what they have then Minot does. The Beavers have been through the ringer with the Hoffner situation, a new coach coming in after him, and the subsequent recruiting challenges that follow. Due to the health of Luke Papilion (who started the first 6 games last year) USF might not decide on a starting quarterback until they take the field on the 6thAugustana at Minnesota-CrookstonBemidji State at Wayne StateSouthwest Minnesota State at MaryMinnesota State-Moorhead at Upper IowaConcordia-St. Paul at Minnesota-Duluth
