  Most Surprising Result: Eastern Washington 35, Montana St. 24 - The Eagles got the job done, but they still struggled with a Bobcat team that was missing about 15 players (including both kickers) due to injury & illness. They also gave up 592 yards to an offense that was averaging 334.

  Best Performance: (#22) Holy Cross 42, (#17) Colgate 28 - With the Crusaders scoring 42 on Colgate, you'd expect that QB Dominic Randolph shredded them.

  Worst Performance: Bucknell 16, Lehigh 35 - The Bison offense plays OK, but the defense can't keep Lehigh off the field as they allow 10 third-down conversions and 4 fourth-down conversions.
  
  Most Surprising Result: Lehigh 35, Bucknell 16 - The M-Hawks have been unusually bad this year, but they haven't fallen so far as to end their double-digit winning streak over Bucknell.

For UNH, yes. And JMU was god awful in the game - not even close to being competitive. The way JMU played that game, Towson could have beaten them.
