FCS Nation Radio Releases Week 4 FCS Top 25 Poll

A Week of Big Moves in the FCS

A lot of movers and shakers as we move past Week 4. The Ivy League is starting to make its presence felt, and what must be mentioned is that Tarleton State, thanks to its explosive offensive play and no signs of slowing down, has hurdled Montana State to claim the No. 3 spot in the subdivision. Southern Illinois can no longer be qualified as a surprise team; they are a legitimate threat in the Missouri Valley Conference. Meanwhile, the Montana Grizzlies find themselves at No. 4 in this week’s poll.
