A few games were exciting, MSU@EWU and BBQ @ UCD. and some other were too predictable PSU@UM, ISU@UNCU
Both MSU and EWU have things to clean up and polish. UM and BBQ continue to show why they are the top 2 dogs and Sac is a whisker behind.
and look out for Idaho.


1. Weber (2) - I moved BBQ up to number 1 because of a more impressive resume than UM has. SOS does mean something.

Tie 2. Montana (1) - Not often a team wins big and drops a spot. UM dominated PSU for all but PSU's opening drive.

Tie 2. Sac State (3) - Soundly beat a bad Mountain West FBS team

4. Montana State (4) - Squeaked by EWU. Needed a 5 minute play review to pull out the victory and it was the right call (This first 5 minute review). Nothing in the review to overrule the call on the field. MSU only had one turnover to EWU's 2.

5. Idaho (6) - Dispatched NAU in Flagstaff without too many difficulties. UI is moving up the rankings.

6. UC Davis (5) - Ohh so close, but yet another L. UC Davis has to have one of the tougher schedules in FCS. Not much easier this next weekend in Bozeman.

7. EWU (8) - Nearly took down MSU in Cheney. EWU's loss against MSU was more impressive than NAU's lose to Idaho

8. NAU (7) - Beaten at home against a rising Idaho team. Looking like another middling year for NAU. Yet they could upset one of the contenders and play a spoiler role.

9. PSU (9) - Throttled in Missoula. Had a few bright spots throughout the game, but UM proved to be too much for PSU.

10. NC (10) - A win over lowly ISU is not enough to jump PSU

11. CP (11) - Was idle. Will that make much difference against Sac this coming weekend.

12. ISU (12) - Lowly UNCU beat up on the Bengals. They do host a game against CP in 3 weeks.


A change in the Recap: 1-6 contenders 7-9 Middle of the pack 10-12 Bottom of the barrel
Idaho moved up into the contenders category.
