Four teams in top 17 from the Big Sky. Not bad.

Not related to our ranking in the polls, just an observation. In 2018, MSU faced teams that had 4 of the top 10 Payton Award finalists. In 2019, we'll face the current Buck Buchanan winner.

Great showdown coming up with a SEMO team with a similar ranking. Maybe this is out there already and I haven't seen it, but this will probably be our Gold Rush game. That game will sell out real fast me thinks.
