Week 6 in FCS Football is almost upon us, so it is time to see who is playing who, who’s staying true, and who doesn’t care anymore.

More from North Carolina Sports

Saturday- 10/4

Campbell Camels (1-3) at Morehead State Eagles (2-2)

Time: 1:00 PM

These two teams won their Pioneer League openers and now face each other without scholarship players. The meeting between Mike Minter’s bunch and the alma mater of Phil Simms should be a good one. Morehead State’s only other win was against Pikeville.

Davidson Wildcats (1-4) vs Dayton Flyers (2-1)

Time: 1:00 PM

The Wildcats are coming off a big loss to Princeton and are glad to see another Pioneer League opponent on the schedule. Things may not get too much easier though, as Dayton comes to town with wins over Georgetown and Robert Morris.

Gardner-Webb Runnin Bulldogs (2-3) vs Charlotte 49ers (3-2)

Time: 1:30
TV: ESPN3

Both teams are coming off of losses. The Bulldogs were embarrassed by the Citadel, and the 49ers played Charleston Southern to the very brink. Look for big days for Matt Johnson and Kalif Phillips of the 49ers, as they continue their path toward the FBS.

Elon Phoenix (1-3) vs New Hampshire Wildcats (3-1)

Time: 1:30 PM

The school where Chip Kelly cut his teeth comes down to Burlington to face the Phoenix. The Wildcats have had no trouble scoring points in their previous games and will look to do the same in their Colonial Athletic Association match against Elon. Elon will be looking to create chances with turnovers in this one.

    Both of these teams beat Furman. One of them beat Furman by a lot more. That would be the Catamounts, who are poised to continue their fine season by beating the Blue Hose and getting to 4 wins.

    North Carolina Central Eagles (1-3) vs Howard Bison (1-4)

    Time: 2:00 PM

    Someone will leave Durham with their second win on the year. That is certain. It will also be the first MEAC win for whichever team prevails.

    North Carolina A&T Aggies (4-1) vs South Carolina State Bulldogs (3-2)

    Time: 3:30 PM

    The battle for MEAC supremacy really occurs down in the Georgia Dome where the Aggies and the Bulldogs will face off for first place. The Bulldogs have close wins against Furman (I guess everybody is beating Furman this year) and Hampton. The Aggies will be hoping that the one-two punch of Kwashaun Quick and Marquell Cartwright will be enough to keep the conference lead.
