Bemidji State, Northern’s first opponent of the season, tops the preseason poll with four first-place votes. Second-rated Minnesota Duluth received five first-place votes. Third-rated Wayne State and fourth-rated Augustana each received a pair of first-place votes.

Northern defensive lineman Ian Marshall was chosen as the preseason NSIC Defensive Player of the Year, while Bemidji State quarterback Brandon Alt was selected as the preseason NSIC Offensive Player of the Year.
