WACO, Texas – With the playoff opener on deck, the UIndy football team is locked in at No. 14 in the final regular-season edition of the AFCA DII Coaches Poll, released Monday. The GLVC champs finished the regular season at 10-1 and earned a first-round playoff game at No. 5 Grand Valley this Saturday, Nov. 23.
Â
Nine teams from Super Region 3 appeared in this week's top 25, meaning two ranked squads—Southern Arkansas and Central Missouri—were left out of the
playoff picture. Meanwhile, UIndy will be making its third consecutive postseason appearance.
