Akem's Analysis - Week 0, ranked Big Sky matchups, Efton Chism

About this episode

In this week's Akem's Analysis, we talked about the upcoming games in the Big Sky as well as the rest of the FCS. UC Davis vs Mercer is the biggest game of the weekend, and it will tell us a lot about what to expect from UC Davis this season. 

The FCS Stats Perform Preseason poll gives us an idea of how many ranked opponents each Big Sky team will be playing. What does that look like this season? Ace Sauerwein talked about his top 9 Montana football players of the last 9 years on The Daily Drive. Are there any players missing?
