FCS Quarterfinals Predictions: Friday Night Lights??

The FCS Quarterfinals are finally here. After an entire season of playing great football and building bonds that will last a lifetime, eight teams still have a chance to win the championship. What a remarkable achievement! Here’s your reward: playing on a Friday night with just one other college football game happening this weekend. What?!

Six teams will have to play on friday night due to available television spots. From what I can tell, ESPN decided to have a bunch of early season college basketball games on rather than the FCS Playoffs. I’m sure they have some ratings or whatever to justify it, however it’s still unfair to the players, coaches, and fans of this Division.
