College of Idaho Football Makes History
The College of Idaho football team is 3-0 to start the 2019 season and now ranked No. 11 in the first regular-season NAIA Football Coaches Poll of the year as voted by the American Football Coaches Association.
That is a jump of four spots from 15th last week and is the highest ranking in program history!
C of I is one of seven teams in the poll with a 3-0 record and one of three Frontier Conference teams in the top 25. Montana Western is No. 20 and Rocky Mountain checks in at No. 24.
