Football
Schedule Format
Currently the 16-member NSIC plays an 11-game conference schedule, leaving schools with no non-conference games to play. Every team plays the other seven teams in its own division every year and then plays four games against teams from the opposite division with those opposite division teams rotating on and off the schedule every two years for home-and-home purposes.

Of a silent crowd walking under a wall,
Leaving a football match, perhaps, or a pit,
All moving the same way.”
