FCS Week 1

Post by CodyCat » Wed Aug 27, 2025 11:50 am

Some intriguing matchups in Week One.

Eastern at UIW. Interesting matchup after UIW got beat in Week Zero.

Sac at SDSU. Lots of unknowns for both these teams.

Cal Poly at San Diego. Poly needs this win.

Idaho at WSU. Any decent FCS team has a shot in Pullman.

Tarleton St at Army.

Bill and Mary at Furman.


Hating the griz since 02.

Bill & Mary @ Furman should actually be a really good game. Great litmus test on where the CAA and SoCon compare with each other

I have no idea what EWU @ UIW will look like

I would add:

Richmond @ Lehigh. This is a playoff rematch from last year and surprise win by Lehigh. Now a Conference matchup.
Idaho State @ SUU. SUU was playoff bubble team last year so was last week just UNLV is bad or will ISU be frisky this year.

Tarleton looked good, but my god, that army team is not anywhere close to their team last year.

They lost their amazing QB. He was that offense last year.

NDSU is not looking that sharp. Citadel is giving them some trouble.

Wishful thinking? Bizun 31 Citadel 0 start of the 4th.

It was a slow start, they got moving and rolling. Their second string is really sticking to Citadel too.

Turns out that first drive by Iowa St was a sign of things to come. I know they're ranked but it's still a little bit of a disappointment by USD.

UNCU looking like they might get a griz level win to open their season. Up 14-3 against Chadron State in the 3rd.

Sac vs SDSU is interesting, neither offense is well wowing me but both defenses seem pretty stingy. defenders all over the ball on both sides.

They said exactly what I was thinking. If they aren’t careful Sacs QB will sue them too!

SAC reminds me of Colorado in Deion’s 1st year. Bunch of talented guys with no idea of what they are doing.
