    Overall: 8-9


    Best Performance: Idaho St. 44, Sacramento St. 24 - The Bengals rack up 639 yards on a porous Sacramento State defense.

    Worst Performance: Sacramento St. 24, Idaho St. 44 - DeAndre Carter's 14 catches for 158 yards and 3 touchdowns are wasted by a Hornet team that suddenly has no momentum.

    Most Surprising Result: Idaho St. 44, Sacramento St. 24 - This was Idaho State's first Big Sky win over a team not named "Northern Colorado" since 2009.

Southland

ACU 59-14 HBU

    Best Performance: Sam Houston St. 42, Lamar 10 - Bearkats seemingly get back on track thanks to 7 Cardinal fumbles (3 lost).

    Worst Performance: Houston Baptist 14, Abilene Christian 59 - Giving up 659 yards to a transitional means the Huskies are miles away from really competing in the Southland.

    Most Surprising Result: Lamar 10, Sam Houston St. 42 - The Cardinals are now 0-5 against SHSU since restarting football and have been outscored 216-30 in those contests.

    vs. FCS: 3-0
    Overall: 23-1


    Best Performance: Indiana St. 38, (#22) Liberty 19 - The out-of-nowhere surge by the Sycamores continues with a convincing win over a solid Flames team.

    Worst Performance: Western Illinois 17, (#17) Southern Illinois 34 - The Leathernecks average just 19.8 net yards-per-kickoff in a universally mediocre performance.

    Most Surprising Result: Indiana St. 38, (#22) Liberty 19 - Mike Perish's yards-per-attempt numbers aren't great, but he's still throwing for 295 ypg and has no picks.

FAMU 7-27 TSU
TTU 7-50 UNI
SEMO 31-27 UTM

    Worst Performance: Tennessee Tech 7, (#10) Northern Iowa 50 - This one was far uglier than the score: the Golden Eagles lost turnovers 3-0 and only managed 92 yards, 84 of which came on one play.

    Most Surprising Result: (none)

USD 20-16 MARIST

    vs. FCS: 0-1
    Overall: 4-14


    Best Performance: Jacksonville 35, Butler 7 - Dolphins put up 611 yards on the road… I swear there's been an unusually high number of 600+ yard games in DI this year.

    Worst Performance: Valparaiso 24, Campbell 34 - The Crusaders outgained Campbell by 128 yards, but 3 interceptions sealed yet another loss.

    Most Surprising Result: Butler 7, Jacksonville 35 - I have no idea why the Bulldogs were favored in the point spread here, but I didn't expect a blowout either.



Tomorrow: the rest of the playoff conferences.
