Southwest St. beat St. Cloud and Northern defeated Augie this weekend. I watched SDSU completed dismantle an overmatched Southwest St team in Mankato earlier this year. Its obvious that Augie is terrible and once again will not be a factor in the NCC.
More concerning is the performance of several other NCC teams this early season. On the plus side it should be a two team race, SDSU vs USD, and I like our chances. Perhaps UNO or one of the two ND schools will offer a challenge.
I hate to see teams from the NCC with recent success being defeated by NSIC teams. I have subjected myself to the pain of listening to the announcers on the Northern Sun Spotlight weekly TV show and it is clear that they feel the NSIC is on par with the NCC. They can't stop talking about Winona St and Concordia in the post-season in football, Northern St. recent success, and Winona St. victory over SDSUs women. The future of the NCC appears at significant risk. I never thought I would be happy to leave the NCC behind, but I am.
