CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – UNI football jumped to the No. 10 spot in the AFCA FCS Coaches Top-12 Poll and held steady at 11th in the FCS STATS Top-25 poll released Monday.

The Panthers are coming off an impressive 34-14 win over Southern Utah Saturday that saw UNI open the game on a 34-0 run before SUU scored a pair of touchdowns in the final 16 minutes of game time.

UNI was previously ranked 12th in the coaches poll and jumped two spots. The STATS poll saw the Panthers remain at No. 11, but make significant movement in the votes. Last week UNI notched 1,884 points, but after the win over Southern Utah, the Panthers recorded 2,221 points.

UNI has a bye week this week before hosting Idaho State on Sept. 21 in the UNI-Dome.

Tickets are still available for the remaining five games, including prorated season tickets. Visit UNIPanthers.com/tickets or call the ticket office at 319-273-4849.
