FCS Football Rankings For Week 6: W&M Football Drops; Rhode Island Ranked
William and Mary Football drops five spots, while Rhode Island Football enters rankings ahead of rivalry game with Brown. Here are the FCS Football Rankings
For the first time in 2023, William & Mary Football is no longer in the top five of the FCS Coaches Poll.
In the latest Week 6 rankings, the Tribe, which opened the season at No. 4 in the rankings and remained there in four of the first five polls, dropped to No.9. The fall comes two days after William & Mary was upset on the road to Elon, 14-6. It was not only the first loss of the year for W&M, but also the first loss of the CAA season.
Last year, W&M’s only loss in the regular season was also to Elon, but it proved to be costly as it opened the door for New Hampshire to claim a share of the conference title.
