Playoffs so far:

North Dakota State sat the opening weekend on a bye before dismantling San Diego, the same Pioneer League team it took care of a year ago in round two of the playoffs. They promptly took care of business of Wofford​ a week later in another rout.

Sam Houston State has back-to-back wins over South Dakota and Kennesaw State. The Bearkats have jumped out to an early lead and hung on in each contest, winning a shootout over South Dakota and getting a key defensive stop to take out Kennesaw State.
