Minnesota State Mankato is the NSIC contender that has twice reached the Division II national championship game (2014, 2019) but lost both — and uses that championship hunger as fuel for every recruiting class.
Fans here believe the chip is the national stage itself — Mankato knows it can compete with anyone, but has to prove it on the biggest stage.
