Those pesky FCS teams once again are demonstrating their readiness to strike down FBS teams.  To date we've seen:
Sacramento State over Colorado
Youngstown State over Pitt
McNeese over Middle Tennessee
North Dakota State over Colorado State
Northern Arizona over UNLV
UT-Martin over Memphis
Texas State (a transition team) over Houston
Illinois State over Eastern Michigan
Eastern Washington over Idaho

In addition several FBS teams have escaped losses to FCS teams by narrow margins.  Example: Maryland 7, William & Mary 6.

Yes, but Maryland went on to pound the great and storied Division I opponent Temple a week later--what's that mean?  Oh, where is that lunatic to spar with this year--Big East, huh?

That's why we can't look past Norfolk St.  They're a VERY good team.  They went 9-3 last season, and they're 2-0 this season including a win last week at Liberty, which lost at Wake by a field goal in week 1.

Norfolk State?  I thought we were playing Marshall this week.  Or, are we looking past them?

Cal Poly 24  Wyoming 22

That's at least 10 FCS bites this season - so far.

And Pitt, who lost to Youngstown State last week, upsets #13 Virginia Tech last night.  Go figure.  More importantly, GO CATS!
