If you're heading to Saturday, it's Senior Day, and UMD's playoff hopes ride on it. The Bulldogs host Minot State in a rematch of last year's NSIC championship game, coming off a 44-26 loss at Bemidji State.

Head coach Curt Wiese said he'll be watching the Grand Valley State-Davenport game, since a Grand Valley win likely puts UMD in. First comes Minot. "Seven and four sounds a lot worse than eight and three," he said. "We've got to get to eight and three this week."

  • Kickoff: noon Saturday at Malosky Stadium
  • Senior ceremony: before kickoff
  • Needs: a Grand Valley State win over Davenport
