OGDEN -- After unprecedented back-to-back trips to the Football Championship Subdivision playoffs, Weber State is looking to stretch a double into a triple.
To reach the FCS playoffs for a third straight year, coach Ron McBride's young Wildcats have to step up to own the tradition, as well as overcome a Big Sky Conference schedule bookended by tough road games at Boston College and Texas Tech. Weber State opens the season Saturday at 11:30 a.m. at BC's Alumni Stadium in Chestnut Hill, Mass.
