The FCS football season returns in full this weekend, with plenty of games to get you set for the start of what should be a fun season that will have some twists and turns, but will determine an NCAA Championship team.
The highlight this weekend is on Friday night, when the No. 5 South Dakota State Jackrabbits head to the No. 3 Northern Iowa Panthers. Pierre Strong Jr. has rushed for more than 1,000 yards in each of the last two season for the Rabbits, and Panthers sophomore quarterback Will McElvain will look to be the next passer from the MVC to make an NFL impact along with guys like Kurt Warner and Carson Wentz.
