FCS Week 9

[NDSUstudent]

Three Games to Watch:
NDSU at UNI 6 p.m. ESPN3/ESPN Extra/NBC ND- Big game in the MVFC, the Bison are looking to build on a hard fought win at WIU while UNI is looking to just keep its season alive. QB Eli Dunne provided a huge spark toward that cause last week, torching MSU's defense for over 400 yards through the air. Should be interesting to see how the new QB reacts in a big rivalry game this week, meanwhile for NDSU the key will be finding some offensive consistency. UNI's defense is always very tough at home.

Weber State at UND 1 p.m. MidcoSN2- This is UND's toughest game left on their schedule, the Fighting Hawks avoid both Montana and EWU so they have a very favorable path to at least a share of the Big Sky title if they can win out. Weber State is no slouch though. The Wildcats have won four straight games and are fresh off a huge come from behind 37-36 win at SUU. Weber is also undefeated in Big Sky play and avoids EWU and Montana, so just like with the Fighting Hawks a W puts them firmly in title contention.

Montana at Eastern Washington 2:30 p.m. RSRM: 683 / RSNW: 687 / AUD: 601 / RSSW: 674- In this week's FCS game of the week the Montana Grizzlies invade the vaunted red turf. EWU has rolled through every Big Sky team in its path and has yet to score under 40 points in a conference game. Montana meanwhile has been a bit jekyll and hyde defenisvely but they are capable of lighting up the scoreboard with QB Brady Gustafson. Nobody seems capable of stopping EWU, you can only hope to outscore them so I expect another classic Big Sky shoot out in Cheney.
