  Best Performance: (#8) Montana St. 48, (#3) Montana 14 - The Bobcats outrush the Griz 382-46 in an inexplicable beatdown.
  
  Worst Performance: Northern Arizona 53, Idaho 60 (OT) - The Lumberjack "defense" allows Mason Petrino—of all people—to put up 556 yards of total offense and 7 total touchdowns.
  
  Most Surprising Result: (#3) Montana 14, (#8) Montana St. 48 - This was the most lopsided Griz loss in the Brawl since 1966 (38-0) and the most lopsided loss for either team in this rivalry since 1999 (49-3).

  Best Performance: (#23) Nicholls St. 28, (#21) Southeastern Louisiana 27 - Dai'Jean Dixon catches 9 passes for 190 yards and 3 touchdowns—including a go-ahead 57-yarder with 1:30 left—to help clinch the Southland auto for the Colonels.
  
  Worst Performance: Northwestern St. 20, Stephen F. Austin 32 - The Demons lose rushing 232-56 to an SFA team that was averaging just 98 ypg on the ground coming in.
  
  Most Surprising Result: Northwestern St. 20, Stephen F. Austin 32 - The Demons had won 3 of 4 after a horrible 0-7 start, so it's surprising that they lost to a Lumberjack squad that hadn't really turned around their own slow start.

  Best Performance: (#18) Central Connecticut St. 43, Duquesne 10 - The Blue Devils don't let up despite this game meaning far less than we all thought it would a few weeks ago.
  
  Worst Performance: Long Island 10, Merrimack 24 - The Sharks finish 0-10 and lose to former NE-10 rival Merrimack for the first time since 2013.
  
  but Most Surprising Result: Merrimack 24, Long Island 10 - Sure, they didn't beat anyone remotely good, but the Warriors still posted a winning record in their first transitional season.

  Overall: 15-9
  
  
  Best Performance: Princeton 28, Penn 7 - It wasn't enough to save their season, conference-title-wise, but the Tigers did close they year scoring 28 unanswered points.
  
  Worst Performance: Columbia 9, Cornell 35 - Though they did beat Harvard in the middle of that stretch, the Lions' last 4 losses came by an average of 30 ppg.
  
  Most Surprising Result: (#22) Dartmouth 29, Brown 23 - Maybe it's good the Big Green aren't in the playoffs because losing to Cornell and needing a fourth-quarter comeback to beat Brown doesn't exactly qualify as "peaking at the right time."

  Most Surprising Result: Morgan St. 15, Howard 20 - Hard to believe Morgan beat North Carolina A&T 2 weeks ago…
