Worst Performance: Northern Colorado 10, (#25) Northern Arizona 49 - This is sadly the most points the Bears have scored against NAU in 3 years.
Most Surprising Result: (#3) Montana 29, Eastern Washington 24 - Taking a 22-0 lead seems to be a curse for the Griz as they’ve now had 2 games against roughly 30-point underdogs (EWU & Sacred Heart) where they took a 22-0 lead early and ended up in a one-score game in the fourth quarter.

Best Performance: (#22) Lamar 14, (#17) Southeastern Louisiana 12 - The Cardinal defense came up big in the clutch as they held SELU to 1/3 on fourth down, allowed just 3 points in 2 redzone trips, and stopped a key two-point conversion that would’ve tied the game halfway through the fourth quarter.
Worst Performance: Northwestern St. 3, Incarnate Word 38 - The Demons have failed to score a touchdown in 5 of their 10 games this season.
Most Surprising Result: (#22) Lamar 14, (#17) Southeastern Louisiana 12 - The Lions had been putting up way more impressive margins against weaker Southland teams than Lamar, but the Cardinals are now 5-1 in one-score games this season (this was SELU’s first one-score game of the year).

Most Surprising Result: (#11t) North Dakota 10, (#1) North Dakota St. 15 - They couldn’t pull out the win in the end, but the Fighting Hawks did allow just 15 points to a team that had scored no less than 33 in any of their previous games this season.

Most Surprising Result: (#24) Presbyterian 13, Davidson 14 - With starting QB Collin Hurst out, the Blue Hose fall apart South Dakota State-style as backup Ty Englehart goes 9/22 for 69 yards and 2 picks.

Best Performance: Cornell 39, Penn 17 - Garrett Bass-Sulpizio has his best game of the season, going 24/31 passing for 265 yards and a TD (0 INTs) to help the Big Red win their 4th. straight after an 0-4 start.
Worst Performance: Penn 17, Cornell 39 - The Quakers had literally 0 tackles-for-loss in this game.
Most Surprising Result: Cornell 39, Penn 17 - Cornell’s last 4 wins over Penn have all been in Philly. They haven’t beaten the Quakers at home since 2006, oddly enough.

Best Performance: Long Island 29, Duquesne 11 - Ethan Greenwood threw for 122 yards and 2 TDs and ran for 91 yards and a TD to help the Sharks stun Duquesne.
Worst Performance: Duquesne 11, Long Island 29 - Duke QB (and former Gardner-Webb & ETSU QB) Tyler Riddell looked great up to the middle of October with 18 TD passes and just 3 picks, but he’s thrown 5 INTs and just 3 TD passes since despite playing mostly weaker competition.
Most Surprising Result: Duquesne 11, Long Island 29 - Just 3 weeks ago, Duquesne looked like the best team in the NEC. Now, CCSU pretty much has the auto-bid wrapped up.

Most Surprising Result: (#7) Monmouth 13, New Hampshire 38 - I would say the loss of Derek Robertson finally caught up to the Hawks, but QB Frankie Weaver had decent passing stats despite being sacked 5 times: 21/31, 242 yards, 2 TDs (0 INTs). The real problem was Monmouth’s meager 61 rushing yards, a season-low against FCS competition.
