This is only the second unseeded quarterfinal in the last 6 years (last year's Colgate/SHSU contest the other), but it should be quite entertaining if you like running. It should also be quite close, since Wofford's defense has been quite stifling the last 3 weeks while Youngstown has averaged 48 ppg over the same stretch. I'll take the Penguins primarily because they found a passing game last week & they're also undefeated at home, but it largely comes down to how well their strong run defense translates to the option.

Here's my assessment of the matchups & my pick for the game:

• • • Quarterbacks -- Youngstown St.
      
      Running Backs - Youngstown St.
      
      Receivers/TEs - Youngstown St.

      Defensive Line - Youngstown St.
      
      Linebackers --- Wofford
      
      Secondary ---- Youngstown St.
      
      
      Kicking ------ Wofford
      
      Punting ------ Wofford
