2025 FCS Week 1 Schedule

What are the massive upsets?
1. Don't be surprised if NDSU struggles at The Citadel, remember they should have lost at ETSU but got luck to recover an onside kick and score twice inside the last two minutes to steal a win in Johnson City, TN.
2. Bozeman will lose at Oregon, that's not it.
3. South Dakota falls at Ames to Iowa State, not there.
4. SDSU will win against the new staff at Sac, okay.
5. UIW will find a way to beat EWU wearing them out in the nearly 100 humidity that will feel more like 103 or so at game time. That wouldn't be a massive upset if Eastern won though after last week in Thibodaux, LA.
6. Illinois State fall in Norman to Oklahoma.
7. Griz don't play, that is upsetting, to have an open week to start the year.
8. UC Davis should more than handle Utah (I want to know what's technical about it) Tech
9. Rhode Island should have no problem with Campbell
10. Tarleton State loses to Army
11. Mercer should handle Presbyterian, or any other team that would fall to Northern Colorado.
12. I'd like to say Idaho beats Wazzu, I'm just not feeling it for them though
13. Nova is also off, the only other FCS team not to play in week 0/1
14. Lehigh is at home for Richmond, and they are picked to win the Patriot League so I am going with that to say they beat Richmond, still not a big upset if Richmond wins
15. Sac St - did that
16. ACU will possibly give Tulsa a scare
17. Jackson State beats Hampton, and then watch out because a SWAC team beat a CAA member
18. Western Carolina will not lose at home to Gardner-Webb, still not a major upset if the fall
19. NAU falls to Arizona State like every other year between Arizona taking them down in the other every
20. SIU wins against Thomas More, whoever he is
21. Tennessee Tech does the same over Cumberland, not to be confused with University of the Cumberlands, as if it makes a difference
22. Monmouth should be able to win at Colgate
23. SFA won't win at Houston
24. Stony Brook loves long distance trips where they lose and this year that is San Diego State
25. Richmond - did that

We disagree on a couple of games, but I just don't get who are the huge upset you are call.
Yeah I pretty much sh+t the bed on some of these.
 
Interesting to note regarding our opponent next week, Kansas State went from #17 in the AP poll to only receiving 7 votes as of this week after their performance vs. North Dakota.
 
I have a feeling nearly losing to UND made them fall a lot more than that loss to ISU did lol
It probably didn't help the cause, but they had 7 POINTS in the poll, which could have meant one vote at #19 for 7 POINTS, 7 votes at #25, or anything in between. They had 79 points in the coaches' poll but certainly, to your point, losing 24-21 as the #17 team to the #22 team should not take you out of the top 25 in and of itself.
