Notre Dame played outside of the Big 10 and lost to reigning DI fall champion Davenport. The Irish will be better for it come playoffs, but in the meantime, UCONN and Minnesota got the bump. The duo are dominating in the Northeast and Midwest, respectively. Northeastern has been posting similarly lopsided results in the Northeast and will face the Huskies this Saturday. Iowa State is chasing the Gophers, and they’ll meet on Oct. 20.
Air Force hosted an early-morning friendly against Navy, which was coming off a narrow loss to NIRA’s Mount St. Mary’s the week prior. The Midshipmen end the service academy series 0-2, having dropped a 50-0 contest to Army previously. The Black Knights will host Air Force on Nov. 2, just before the NIRA playoffs begin.
Colorado joined the rankings, having posted a big win in New Mexico and following with a solid game against Wyoming. Michigan State is still on the watch list, and unfortunately, the Spartans’ match against rival Michigan was canceled due to weather last weekend. Looking forward to that make-up.
Texas A&M was idle last weekend but had a win over UT San Antonio to savor. This weekend is big, as the Aggies play also-undefeated Sam Houston State.
