College football season is well underway, but why not spend the final weekend of summer at a fun island party? Rhode Island and Long Island, that is.

For the second consecutive year, the Coastal Athletic Association is sending four teams into the NCAA Division I FCS postseason.

A diverse and dominant defensive effort from the University of Rhode Island Rams helped them turn a fourth-quarter deficit into a record-setting win against longtime rival Brown University.

This season, the Bryant Bulldogs will make their debut in the Coastal Athletic Association, bringing the number of teams in the league to an unprecedented 16, also the most of any FCS conference.
