Delaware Valley has progressed a bit in the past decade, and could sew up another playoff spot on Saturday.

You've come a long way
The landscape of Division III football has changed significantly in the past decade, to the point where a bunch of teams in the Top 25 this season were two-win and three-win teams 10 years ago.

With that in mind, Keith McMillan looks back as part of his Ten Best series and looks at the programs that have made the best turnarounds. Going from 2-8 to the national quarterfinals will get you on the list, but who else qualifies?

There's polls to watch and awards to look forward to, both for coaches and players, for results both on and off the field. Who's unbeaten? Who's still winless?

Plus as the regular season winds down it's time to do a few things: celebrate the outgoing senior class, remember the big and medium-sized rivalry games ... oh, and get ready for Selection Sunday and the playoffs. So we have rivalries that are big games, and other big games that might not have the same bloodlines to look forward to.

There's something in Keith's column for everyone. That and more in this week's Around the Nation.
