  Best Performance: Eastern Kentucky 59, (FBS) Bowling Green 57 (7OT) - Key moment: the Colonels converted the two-pointer in the third overtime after being pushed back to the 18-yard line by an offensive pass-interference penalty.
  
  Worst Performance: (#18) Stephen F. Austin 17, (FBS) Louisiana Tech 52 - The Lumberjacks continue their search for rock bottom as they get stomped by the team picked 9th. in Conference USA.
  
  Most Surprising Result: Eastern Kentucky 59, (FBS) Bowling Green 57 (7OT) - This was the second-most overtimes in any game involving a I-AA/FCS team (Bethune-Cookman beat Virginia State in 8 full overtimes back in 1998—thanks to Craig Haley for that fact).

  Best Performance: Gardner-Webb 27, (FBS) Coastal Carolina 31 - Bailey Fisher throws for 403 yards on just 37 attempts (188 yards to T.J. Luther) as his Bulldogs put a scare into the Chants.
  
  Worst Performance: North Carolina A&T 3, (#1) North Dakota St. 43 - The Aggies did allow only 273 yards, but that was in large part because NDSU's average starting field position was on their 47 yard line (that includes a defensive TD).
  
  Most Surprising Result: Gardner-Webb 27, (FBS) Coastal Carolina 31 - It seems like Gardner-Webb has an eye-opening performance like this in September every year, but the past ones have never ultimately led anywhere. Will this season's aftermath be different?

  Worst Performance: Norfolk St. 7, (FBS) James Madison 63 - I know JMU is technically FBS now, but allowing your opponent to score touchdowns on 9 of their 12 offensive drives is still really ugly.
  
  Most Surprising Result: Morgan St. 21, Towson 29 - The Bears scored more against Towson here than they did in their previous 4 meetings combined.
