WACO, Texas – Fort Hays State Football is back in the receiving votes section of the AFCA Division II Top 25 Poll, released on Monday (Oct. 21). The Tigers are among four MIAA teams in the receiving votes section, while two teams from the conference remain in the top 25. FHSU is currently on a five-game winning streak.

By knocking off Pittsburg State this past Saturday, Fort Hays State pulled Pitt State from the top 25. The Gorillas went into the game ranked 19th<\/sup>. Pittsburg State is now at the top of the receiving votes list, just on the outside the top 25 looking in. Fort Hays State is fourth among teams receiving votes, while Missouri Western is right behind as the fifth team listed receiving votes. This week’s opponent for the Tigers, Nebraska-Kearney, is also among the receiving votes list after a 24-17 win over nationally ranked Northwest Missouri State. The Lopers pushed the Bearcats from No. 7 in the poll to No. 14 this week.

Fort Hays State, Pittsburg State, Missouri Western, and Nebraska-Kearney all sit in a tie for third place in the MIAA standings at 5-2. Central Missouri leads the conference at 7-0, ranked No. 11 in the latest national poll, and Northwest Missouri State is second at 6-1.
