Dom’s 2017 FCS Poll – Thru Week 3

I tweeted out Sunday night there that the poll on Monday would be wild and indeed it is for me, several teams making their debuts, other schools zooming up and others free-falling. Two more schools picked up FBS wins as North Carolina A&T beat Charlotte out of Conference USA and Idaho State gave the Big Sky a boost by knocking off Nevada. That brings the total to eight for 2017. Have a look at the poll, reminder Bracketology coming later this week!
