EXCERPT: The first two automatic bids to the FCS playoffs have gone to Fordham (Patriot League) and Chattanooga (Southern Conference). In addition, Alcorn State handled Alabama A&M, 41-14, to clinch its first appearance in the SWAC Championship Game on Dec. 6. The MEAC race could have a weird ending. Bethune-Cookman and North Carolina A&T are both 8-2 and could have 10-win regular seasons without winning the conference's automatic bid. That's because South Carolina State (7-3, 5-1) is tied with Bethune and A&T atop the standings and has beaten both of them. But coach Buddy Pough's squad will have to earn its way even more because the Bulldogs face stern tests from Morgan State (away) and Norfolk State (home) the final two weeks.
