Wayne Cavadi | NCAA.com | September 6, 2019 Minot State had a thrilling, screwball 104-yard kickoff return TD on DII football's opening night WATCH: Minot State's inconceivable 104-yard touchdown from DII football's opening night Share There were plenty of highlights on opening night of the DII football season but Minot State’s kick return is one we'll remember for a long, long time. Minot State only mustered seven points against Minnesota Duluth, owners of one of the premier defenses in DII football. But man, did they make it memorable in the 52-7 defeat. Cory Carignan's 104-yard scramble from end zone to end zone — with a little help from a huge block by Ali Mohamed — might be the wildest kick return touchdown we see all season: #NSICFB #NSICAllAccess Watch @MSUBeavers Cory Carignan go...@NCAADII #D2FB #SCtop10 pic.twitter.com/gg1Ugu4aox — NSIC (@NorthernSunConf) September 6, 2019 WHAT TO WATCH: Complete schedule, rankings, players and games to watch for Week 1 Here's the best of the rest from opening night.

Especially on this play when Tigner "Gurleyed" the defense for a few extra yards. Hmmm...wonder if @FHSUAthletics' Charles Tigner could be a hurdler one day? 🤔#D2FB pic.twitter.com/ssXfOHcQVJ — NCAA Division II (@NCAADII) September 6, 2019 LATEST DII FOOTBALL NEWS 2021 TOURNEY: Relive Ferris State's first national championship TOURNEY FAQS: New bracket format, explained | How the tourney works 2021: The latest Power 10 | Week in review | All rankings HARLON HILL TROPHY: A complete history | 2021 Harlon Hill contenders DII IN THE NFL: Every former DII player on a 2021 53-man roster DII HISTORY: Most played rivalries | Winningest teams | Championship history TJ Edwards becomes the GLVC touchdown leader on a bomb Edwards is a welcome addition to the Greyhounds, transferring in from Southwest Baptist.

One-handed ridiculousness from the @wusports wide receiver. @SportsCenter, you'll want it. pic.twitter.com/6eylXW8SpE — Tyler Greever (@WIBWTyler) September 6, 2019 Way-too-early 2022 FCS playoff bracket predictions It's May and the FCS playoffs aren't until November, but that doesn't matter because we predicted the 24-team 2022 FCS playoff field anyway.
