The Big Sky Conference reprimanded and issued a $10,000 fine against Sacramento State football coach Brennan Marion for violating its sportsmanship policy. He’s publicly questioned officiating of his team’s games. “I want to make it abundantly clear that publicly questioning the integrity of our officials and the conference office will not be tolerated,” commissioner Tom Wistrcill said. The conference said Marion was informed a repeat of such behavior could result in a more severe penalty.

#FCS Tarleton State's +24 turnover margin through nine games may not be sustainable, but if it is, the Texans' +2.67 margin per game would be third-highest in an FCS season since 1992 behind: 2001 Saint Peter's (+3.18 in 11 games) 2000 Western Kentucky (+2.69 in 13 games)
