FootballScoop's FCS weekend preview (Featured)

The 100-meter dash that is this spring FCS season has just hit the 60-meter mark. Just as soon as you hit top speed, it's time to peak to your left and right and see where you stand. If you don't like what you see, you've got limited time to hit the gas, lest you be left behind.

A month after every one got underway, we're now in the stretch run. Most teams have just two games after this weekend's action.

This week's schedule gives us just two ranked vs. ranked games -- it would've been three, but Villanova-New Hampshire was postponed -- making them all the more important. The winners of No. 11 Delaware at No. 18 Rhode Island and No. 13 Incarnate Word at No. 17 Nicholls will get a boost as the finish line quickly approaches. The losers, on the other hand...
