FCS Playoffs Second RoundThe Matchup -- San Diego (10-1) at No. 1 seed North Dakota State (10-1)Kickoff -- 3:30 p.m. ET at the Fargodome (19,000) in Fargo, North DakotaCoverage -- ESPN3Series -- First meetingPlayers to Watch -- San Diego: QB Anthony Lawrence (223 of 326, 2,811 yards, 24 TDs, 7 INTs), RB Jonah Hodges (1,361 rushing yards, 176.6 all-purpose ypg, 20 TDs), LB Jon Petersen (20.5 TFL, 11.5 sacks, 13 QB hurries); North Dakota State: QB Easton Stick (126 of 209, 1,719 yards, 15 TDs, 8 INTs; 84 carries, 482 yards, 5 TDs); LG Zack Johnson; SS Robbie Grimsley (70 TT, 4 INTs)The Skinny -- The visiting Toreros power into the second-round matchup off their first-ever FCS playoff win by a Pioneer Football League team (35-21 at Cal Poly). Theyve taken a page out of North Dakota States playbook with an average time of possession of 35 minutes, 6 seconds and a defense allowing only 244.6 yards and 12.9 points per game -- all FCS-leading averages. Hodges (35 carries, 171 yards, three touchdowns) was unstoppable against Cal Poly, but Lawrence is going to have to have a career game against the Bison. His favorite targets, WR Brian Riley and TE Ross Dwelley, have combined for 117 receptions, 1,752 receiving yards and 16 TD catches. The Toreros sack differential is extraordinary -- 30 for and only four against. The only other time NDSU has faced a PFL team, it was in the Bisons first Division I game in 2004 -- a 52-0 shutout of Valparaiso. Since 2011, the five-time defending FCS champions have won 20 straight playoff games and havent played outside the Fargodome (15 wins) leading into the championship game in Frisco, Texas. They will continually pound the run behind an offensive line that averages 6-foot-5 1/2, 312 pounds per starter, led by All-Missouri Valley Football Conference first-teamers Johnson (LG) and Landon Lechler (RT). Lance Dunn (756 yards, 4 TDs) has become the leading rusher with All-MVFC pick King Frazier (693 yards, 10 TDs) slowed by an ankle injury. Their vaunted defense has allowed only eight rushing TDs and is one of the nations best at defending the red zone. LB Pierre Gee-Tucker has a sprained MCL.Up Next -- The winner will play either Villanova (9-3) or No. 8 seed South Dakota State (8-3) in the quarterfinals Dec. 9 or 10.Prediction -- Despite their ability to defend the run, the Toreros havent faced an offensive line like North Dakota States before.

He arrives in Budapest looking to reverse Hamiltons momentum and says he is undaunted by his Mercedes teammates current form.When asked in Hungary if it was fair to say he was feeling the pressure this weekend, Rosberg replied: No it is not because for me up until now I have had the best season of all the drivers. That is the fact for me which I am focussing on but as Ive said before in general I dont look at the big picture because the best approach for me to win races is just to focus on the weekend at hand which is Hungary.We will try to get the best out of it and go for the win. It doesnt feel any different to previous weekends.That period of five races included a win in Baku, but saw Rosberg struggle in Monaco and Canada before colliding with his teammate on tthe final lap in Austria and losing the lead and a place on the podium.dddddddddddd. Rosberg insists he is not dwelling on what has happened in that period of time.I dont. I have reflected on each and every race after it is done and Ive moved on. Im excited to be here and had a good season so far so I will try to win this weekend as well.Mercedes has won all but one race this year, with Ferrari failing to win yet despite high expectations coming into the season. Rosberg thinks it is too early to write off Ferrari or Red Bulls chances of getting into the championship mix in 2016 with 11 races still to come.When it was put to him that 2016 is now a two-horse race between the Silver Arrows cars, he said: It is too early to say that. Ferrari and Red Bull have been a bit up and down but there is still such a long way to go so it wouldnt be right to say that. Of course I can understand why people say that at the moment. ' ' '
