CEDAR FALLS -- Northern Iowa's football team is complicating things for the Football Championship Subdivision playoff committee.
That group of FCS leaders will have to decide if the Panthers belong in the 24-team playoff field.
UNI (5-4 overall, 4-2 Missouri Valley Football Conference) stated its case emphatically Saturday with a 34-29 victory over sixth-ranked South Dakota inside the UNI-Dome.
Asked if he felt the Panthers are a top 10 team, UNI head coach Mark Farley flipped the question.
