FCS Coaches Poll Top 25: Week 6 College Football Rankings

The FCS wrapped up an exciting Week 5 of the 2018 college football season which means it’s time for the updated rankings. On Monday, October 1, the American Football Coaches Association unveiled the updated AFCA FCS Coaches’ Poll ahead of Week 6.
This week, North Dakota State continues to hold the top spot with all 26 first-place votes in the poll following its win over then-No. 3 South Dakota State. The Bisons return to action over the weekend with another ranked opponent when they face No. 22 Northern Iowa.
Week 6 also features a top ten matchup between No. 2 James Madison and No. 9 Elon.
This season, for the first time ever, the AFCA is in charge of the administration of the FCS. It had previously been run by the Southern Conference. The AFCA also administrates the Division II and Division III Top 25 polls.
