What’s at stake

Northern Arizona

  • Northern Arizona is the Flagstaff-mountain program that dominated NCAA Division II (four straight titles 1978–81), entered I-AA in 1996 and never found the same standard, now living in the Big Sky with the memory of greatness and the reality of mid-tier comfort.

Eastern Washington

  • Eastern Washington football is built on a singular visual distinction—the only red football field in college football—and the memory of a stunning national championship comeback. The Eagles compete in the Big Sky as a scrappy, resourceful program with a dramatic 2010 title that still echoes across the conference.
