Recruiting is in full swing already, MSU has the most quality commits thus far, With AU and UMD also doing well.

As I understand it, most conferences are having kind of a weird year.

It's time to separate the wheat from the chaff in the next 6 weeks, as the old timers used to say. What games are left for the four 1 loss teams.
Highest ranked MSU Mavs control their own destiny. Toughest games are all at the friendly confines of Blakeslee stadium. Home games against Wayne, USF and AU with a road trip to WSU. Also play UIU and SMSU.
UMD have easiest path to a 1 loss season. Home games vs. BSU, AU and NSU. With a road tussle at resurgent Mary. Also CSP and Minot.
AU has hardest path to a 1 loss season. Home against WSU. Road, WSC, MSU and UMD. Games vs UIU and SMSU.
WSC a 4-7 team in 2019 have already reached that win total in 5 games. Wildcats have a big game this week at MSU. Home tussles with AU and USF. Other games SMSU, UIU and at a good MSUM unit.
There is plenty of hope for 2 loss teams, waiting for above schools to slip-up. BSU, NSU, USF and WSU, 2019 saw 3 NSIC teams in playoffs including a 3 loss USF squad.

Crazy that we're at a point where it could very well be a tossup. Props to Wayne for the way they played.
I owe it to the Cats after completely botching my pick two weeks ago with them.

We come to the halfway point
No clear champ to anoint.
Some surprises to date
Like Wayne is just great.
Who's at the rear Now that Crookston's not here?
The answer won't tarry
After Minot meets Mary.
All I know is it's magic
After a year so tragic
To be playing this football
Rather than nothing at all.
Go Mavs.

no idea why 5 Pm. in the past Homecoming has been 6 PM. My guess is starting at 5 Pm allows for more post game Homecoming stuff. all can start by 9 PM easily then instead of rushed there

Odd start time for the game at Southwest- 5 PM. Why not 6 PM? I would have considered doing a double header if they had.

NSIC - Week 6 Chat
Can't believe we're already at the halfway point in the season. The whole chaos that is the NSIC this season is making the picks tougher.
Bemidji State at Concordia-St. Paul (12:00) - Bemidji isn't quite the powerhouse they looked like they were going to be after the first two weeks, but still shouldn't have any trouble at CSP.
Wayne State at Minnesota State-Mankato (1:00) - GOTW. In week 1 I think most of us thought this wouldn't be a very interesting game. Now in week 6 I think it easily could go either way. I went with Mankato mainly because they're at home, but a Wayne win wouldn't surprise me at all.
Upper Iowa at Augustana (1:00) - Angry Vikings take out their frustrations on innocent Peacocks.
Northern State at Winona State (2:00) - It looked to me like the Wolves went into the week 5 game with a nonchalant "we got this" attitude, only to figure out they didn't got it. This week I don't think they'll overlook Winona. The Warriors have a lot of potential and I think will make it a competitive game, but so far they haven't put an entire 60 minutes of play together.
Minnesota State-Moorhead at Minot State (2:00) - Minot scored more in week 5 than they had in weeks 1-4 combined. Good for them. They've also had arguably the toughest 5 game schedule of any team so far this season (Augie, Wayne, Sioux Falls, Mankato, Bemidji.) I could see this week possibly being winnable for them, but I'm going to go with the safe pick.
Minnesota-Duluth at Mary (2:00) - Another potential upset as Mary has found a pretty potent passing game. I'm not ready to pick them over Duluth just yet, though.
Sioux Falls at Southwest Minnesota State (5:00) - If the Coo play like they played last week, then this won't be a contest. If they play like they played in the first halves against Bemidji and Northern, well, SMSU could extend their winning streak to three games.Last edited by Tundra_Man; 10-03-2021, 09:13 AM.Tags: None
