I've seen several GLIAC schools have announced a few exhibition games, and have heard that some of the NSIC teams were at least looking at doing something similar. Has anyone heard anything concrete?

I assume it's Moorhead from MN and not Morehead from KY. That'd make sense for both as they aren't supposed to play this season.

I've heard of other games such as NAIA teams (Morningside and Grand View) doing something with Mankato..and also Northern....but all of it was speculation (unofficial) as of a few weeks ago. Also heard of a few NSIC teams meeting up with Grand Valley..but not at liberty to speak further on that.
I think you will see a fair amount of NSIC teams scrimmage each other..and if possible, from diff divisions....but most athletic departments aren't looking for much travel during this deal....so closer opponents could also be more likely. Each team is seemingly seeking out like 2 scrimmages but some more (Northern, Mankato).

I can't remember exactly but I think it is for either April 10th of 17th at MSU. They weren't allowing fans at the time of scheduling but hopefully that will change- it will be outside after all.
Seems like the worst of this is behind us. I get the caution, but I think they could let some people in safely. Charge them $5/ticket, require masks - and we'd be good to go.

I went to a number of NAIA football games last fall and never had a problem.

Part of the problem would be getting workers for ticket taking, security etc if they are charging money. I would think it would be more like a spring game where people can get in for free.

IMO, we're on the back-end of this thing, and things will be even better in April - might as well open it up. Be smart about it and it's very doable.

That's true. I was just thinking it may sway a few people from coming, if they are worried about packing the place - and/or generate some extra, much needed revenue.
