The rankings were released on Sunday evening, following Texas Southern's 44-10 win over Alcorn State. That contest was pushed back a day as Shell Energy Stadium is shared with the major league soccer club, the Houston Dynamo. The Dynamo hosted Real Salt Lake and won 4-3 in penalties on Saturday night.

The top four teams all hold the same positions they had a week ago with South Dakota State in 1st, followed by Montana State, Montana and Furman.

Delaware inched up from 6th to 5th, while Austin Peay slipped from 5th to 7th and Villanova jumped from 9th to 6th.

Last week's No. 7 team, NC Central, was a 50-20 upset loser at Howard.

The No. 8 team, Idaho, fell 31-29 at Weber State.

The new No. 8 this week is North Dakota State which rose from 11th.

Florida A&M and South Dakota round out the top 10.
