It’s the 50th anniversary of Division II College Football and the playoffs begin on Nov. 18 across the country featuring some of the best programs at the level. 

But not all of the top 25 teams in the country are playing in the playoffs according to the final regular season Division II Football Coaches Poll.

Three teams that made the Week 12 rankings are done for the season, including Davenport Football of the GLIAC, which finished the season with back-to-back losses after starting 8-0. 

The Panthers finish the season ranked No. 22, joining No. 20 Ouachita Baptist (Ark.) and No. 17T Minnesota-Duluth as ranked teams missing the playoffs. 

No.1-ranked Colorado School of Mines is off this week while No.2-ranked Grand Valley State, which essentially knocked Davenport out of the playoffs in the final week of the regular season with a 38-0 win, will host No. 5 Ferris State in the first round. 

Here are the FCS Football rankings for Week 12.
