I watched the game. Like many games it was decided by big plays, not steady statistical dominance.

E.g., Minnesota trailed 21-20 midway through the 4th and SDS had the ball and appeared to be in control, but they fumbled a snap in their own territory and Minnesota cashed in for the winning score.

I called this game to be a possible upset last week. Minnesota do struggle against the Dakota schools.
