The Big Sky title trail starts with a huge game against a rested opponent. Look for Ryan Fuqua to have a big game Ñ the Viks have some rhythm with their running game and are developing some with the pass. The defense has been playing well, too.

PSU had too many cheap penalties Saturday at Oregon and will need to get the ball in Northern Arizona territory once in a while to keep emotions high on the road. PSU blocks a field-goal attempt in the closing seconds to win, 33-31.
