Quincy looks to make it two straight over Wayne State MI
The last time these two met, in September 2025, Quincy handled Wayne State MI 31-14, and the gap between the programs has only grown since. Versus now places Quincy 26 spots ahead of Wayne State MI in the Division II rankings, 103rd to 129th, and this meeting arrives as a non-conference game even though both sides play in the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference's shared header, since Quincy actually competes in the Great Lakes Valley Conference.
Quincy enters off a season-best week in the Versus rankings, a modest climb but a real one for a team still sitting at 1-2 with a C overall grade and a C- offense. Wayne State MI, by contrast, has seen its power rating slide in each of the last four weeks and is winless at 0-3, having also dropped a game to an unranked Division III opponent along the way. Its D+ overall grade and D- marks on both offense and defense reflect a team still searching for footing.
The one number working in Wayne State MI's favor is strength of schedule, ranked 6th in Division II against Quincy's 99th, but that has not translated into results. Versus projects Quincy to win at home 36-21, giving the Hawks an 81 percent chance to improve to 2-2 while Wayne State MI looks for its first win of the season.
