First Round Preview

Post by chris »

This is the second year since the FCS Playoffs were expanded from 16 teams to 20. When that move was made a hybrid bracket was created that would pit the eight lowest teams against each other and give the top 12 a bye. Some of next weekend’s 2nd Round matchups are already set but four of the eight teams from this first round will be moving forward and be given the opportunity to pull big first round upsets.

Albany may have one of the most incredible stories of these playoffs in DE Eddie Delaney. Delaney who was born without a left hand or forearm has overcome that to become one of the most fearsome pass rushers at the FCS level. He has accumulated 8.5 sacks on the season to go along with 54 tackles, and 11.5 for loss. Albany is ranked 60th in the nation in run defense, giving up an average of only 151.45 yard per game. LB’s Jon Morgan and Kyle Jordan combine to make up the core of the run stuffing with 159 tackles, and 15.5 TFL.
