- Best Performance: New Hampshire 64, Lehigh 21 - Nick Shafnisky's health was a factor, but the Wildcats won rushing 364-85 and destroyed a Lehigh squad that was actually favored.
Worst Performance: North Carolina A&T 10, Richmond 39 - One one quarterback showed up in the battle of backup QBs, and it wasn't NC A&T's guy.
Most Surprising Result: San Diego 35, Cal Poly 21 - Not only did the Pioneer League get its first playoff win, the Toreros held Cal Poly's high-octane option attack to just 195 total yards.
