THE FREE WORLD, USA. — The people have spoken and the results are in. Here are the Top Ten FCS Games from Season 2, with a few honorable mentions.

Honorable Mention:

Preseason: Kennesaw State defeats Weber State 34-28 “in what seemed to have been an instant classic”

I am not aware of what made this an instant classic I am merely doing my due diligence and reporting what the archives have recorded.

Week 7: Northwestern Missouri State defeats Missouri Western 19-0 in the first ever D2 game to finish!

Division 2 has a long way to go but the first game to finish was in Season 2 and was won by the Northwestern Missouri State Bearcats.

Week 4: Stetson defeats Texas Southern 44-41 in 2OT

This game and the next one finished tied for 11th in the voting and its fitting that they were both decided in overtime.

Week 10: Mercer defeats Bethune-Cookman in 2OT, 49-48

A wild ending that left everyone satisfied and smiling.

Now for the main event!

10. Week 7: #2 McNeese State defeats Nicholls State 36-35

The Cowboys trailed 28-10 after three quarters but scored 26 points in the fourth to rally and improve to 6-0 while somehow escaping the Curse of #2.

9. Week 6: #1 Montana defeats #2 Idaho State 42-35

Tied at halftime and tied at the end of three, most of us thought this one would go into overtime but Montana scored with 4 seconds left to put them ahead for good as the Tigers hail-mary pass was stopped short of the goal line.

8. Week 12: #1 Montana defeats #6 Montana State 31-22

The Gameday matchup fans had been waiting for since before the season began did not disappoint as these two heavyweights battled it out in a slugfest that was closer than the final scoreline indicates.

There you have it folks! The best game the FCS had to offer this season. Three extra periods were required to determine who would earn a birth in the quarterfinals, proving once and for all that the FCS, is the Best CS.
