All eyes in Division II college football will be on Davenport, Michigan this week as No. 9 Davenport Football hosts defending national champion and No. 7-ranked Ferris State in a game that could help decide the GLIAC championship. 

Davenport moved into the top-10 of the NCAA Division II Football Coaches poll after being on the cusp for the last several weeks. The only undefeated team in the GLIAC, and currently tied in the standings with No. 3 Grand Valley State, Davenport faces Ferris State, which moved up a spot in the latest rankings. 

The winner of this game, which comes with just two weeks left in the regular season, will keep its out-right GLIAC title hopes alive. Ferris State has one GLIAC loss, a 49-28 loss to GVSU. Davenport faces the Lakers in the final game of the season on Nov. 11. 

GVSU Football faces Wayne State this week.

How Does The NCAA Division 2 Football Playoffs Work?

The 50th anniversary of the NCAA Division II Playoffs will feature 28 teams in a single elimination tournament. 

How Division II decides which teams go to the postseason, however, is through a completely different process than the postseasons of the FCS and Division III. 

The Super Region system is unique to Division II, where no conference has an automatic bid to the playoffs, and the postseason places are decided by the top-ranked teams in each of the four Super Regions – groups of conferences (and potentially independents) in a similar geographic area. 

A top-10 Super Regional ranking of all the conference’s members in a particular Super Region is released each of the final three weeks of the regular season. At the end, the teams considered by the selection committee to make up the top 7 in each Super Region, qualify for their Super Region’s playoff bracket, where the No. 1 seed receives a first-round bye. 

For 2023, Super Region 1 mainly consists of Midwestern/eastern schools, Super Region 2 the southeast, Super Region 3 the Midwest, mid-south and Great Plains and Super Region 4 much of Division II’s northern and western membership, plus Texas.
