FCS Playoff First Round Thread

ISU-Red @ Northern Arizona box score from earlier this year: http://www.espn.com/college-football...meId=400950881

NAU won by 3 TDs. Almost 500 yards of offense to ISU-Red's 300. They were +3 on TOs. ISU-Red only rushed for 63 yards.

San Diego got stomped by UC Davis (5-6) and lost a closer game to Princeton (5-5) - however, Princeton was pretty good this year (all their losses were very close and most of their wins were blowouts.)

Assuming all these are ESPN3 again?

probably. Has the app removed the multiple screen option? I think I tried it a couple weeks ago and couldn't do it. I watched 4-6 games at a time last year.

The last time a team from the Big Sky not named Eagles, Griz or Cats won a playoff game was in 2008 when Weber beat Cal Poly!

NAU in their two home games against Valley teams rushed for 85 yards and threw for 624. Their only home loss this year was to the Leathernecks. On the road they were 2-3.....but, are we getting ahead of ourselves? I remember talking about our likely game against Cal Poly last year...

I’m going to do exactly that, and am interested to see Northern Arizona come to Fargo.
We saw the plucky underdog, non-scholly San Diego team last year, so hoping to see Big Sky name-brand QB Case Cookus. Cookus was the 2015 STATS FCS Freshman of the Year.
Is he a future NFL player, or just a Big Fluffy Phenom? Would be fun to see.

Cookus got extra famous for being ejected for targeting on his block against Montana in the 1st half. NAU ended up losing 17-15 in Missoula, so it may have affected the outcome. How many QB’s will ever get ejected for targeting?
Judge for yourself......

Northern Arizona also has a lame duck Head Coach, Jerome Souers, so they can win one more home game for him before before going on the road to Fargo.

I am not sure if that is good or bad, because that is what my bracket was looking like as well. Great minds think alike???

Crazy. My bracket is identical except for SDSU/NDSU final!

This bracket felt really painless to fill out.
