NAU 38 Idaho 31 Final

Our focus right now needs to be beating NAU in their house and I don't think that will be easy. Then we can start preparing for EWU in a monster game in front of a packed Aggie Stadium. Sac is a distant thought for me right now.

Sac 27 Northern Colorado 24 Final

William & Mary 30 #5 Villanova 18 Final
Delaware 17 Dixie State 10 Final
#5 James Madison 45 Elon 21 Final
#10 South Dakota State 47 Youngstown State 16 Final

Montana 20 SUU 19 Final

The bye couldn't come at a better time for us. We are a little beat up on the OL and we don't seem to know exactly who our #1 QB is. Hopefully, we'll heal up and sort things out better during this bye week.

Our next 3 games are going to be very tough: NAU on the road and then EWU and Sac at home. All of these games will test us thoroughly and, depending on how well we do, these games will determine our playoff fate. If we were to win out, then we host. Win 2 out of 3, then we are in but probably have to travel in the first round. Lose two and who knows...the season could be over...or we could travel to a top seed. Lose all 3 and the season is over.

Aggies are #10 in the Stats FCS Poll:

Yes we do. Montana and Poly are also nice looking stadiums.

This is the 3rd straight week that the Ags have played an opponent who is coming off a bye week. We've struggle in all of those games but I think you have to consider that those teams were rested, had time to more healthy and had two weeks to watch film and fine tune their game plan. That's a big advantage to have.
