The FCS championship game enters its quarterfinal round this weekend, leaving only three games left to determine the champion for the 2022 season.
Three of those games already took place on Friday, with 6-seed Samford traveling to take on 3-seed (and defending FCS champion) North Dakota State; 5-seed William & Mary taking on 4-seed Montana State; and 7-seed Incarnate Word traveling to take on 2-seed Sacramento State.
The last remaining game of the quarterfinal round is top overall seed South Dakota State taking on 8-seed Holy Cross on Saturday. With that, the semifinal games will be set.
