A look at the hottest Group of Five teams across college football heading into Week 2
• 3 min read
There were a lot of proverbial tune-up games vs. FCS opponents in Week 1 featuring teams from the Group of Five.There weren’t any surprises in terms of upsets, but some close games were definitely eyebrow-raising.
One team from our Week 1 rankings, the Miami (OH) Redhawks, came within a touchdown from pulling off the upset over Northwestern. Brett Gabbert’s late interception as the Redhawks were driving doomed them from finishing the job. That loss also doomed them from our Week 2 Power Rankings as well.
As one leaves, another takes their place. Fittingly enough, it’s another team from the Mid-American Conference who stepped up to the plate with an impressive Week 1 performance.
