(STATS) -- Nearly 50 former players will return to Youngstown State on Saturday as the Ohio university celebrates the 25th anniversary of the Penguins first of four FCS national title seasons during the 1990s. Jordan 4 For Sale Cheap .The 1991 squad will be reunited with their coach, Jim Tressel, now the Youngstown State president, and feted at Stambaugh Stadium.The 91 Penguins were on a two-game losing streak and only 4-3 when they entered November. But they won 19-17 at national power Georgia Southern to open the month and spark a magical run. They won three more times to enter the playoffs at 8-3, then beat Villanova (17-16), Nevada (30-28) and Samford (10-0) in the national playoffs before they returned to Georgia Southern, host site of the championship game, and defeated Marshall 25-17.Under Tressel, Youngstown State added FCS titles (then Division I-AA) in 1993, 94 and 97 and was the national runner-up in 92 and 99, giving the Penguins four titles among six championship game appearances in a nine-season span.The Penguins had one of the great dynasties in FCS history, and theres been a number since the Division I split in 1978 and the FCS level went to a national playoff system.Eastern Kentucky had the first dynasty under coach Roy Kidd, winning national titles in 1979 and 82 and finishing as the runner-up in the two seasons in between.Georgia Southern had two great runs over a record eight title game appearances. Just prior to Youngstown States first title, the Eagles were the national champs in 1985, 86, 89 and 90 and runners-up in 88 -- all but 1990 under Erk Russell. They got back to the title game in 1998 and lost, but followed up with consecutive titles in 1999 and 2000 under Paul Johnson.Marshall, whose first appearance in the finals was in 1987, was motivated by its loss to Youngstown State in 91, winning national titles in 92 and 96 and finishing second in 93 and 95. Jim Donnan coached the Thundering Herd from 1990-95, succeeded by Bob Pruett in 96.Appalachian State, under Jerry Moore, became the first program to win three straight FCS titles from 1995-97. That standard has been surpassed by perhaps the greatest FCS dynasty, North Dakota State winning five national titles in a row from 2011-15 -- the first three under Craig Bohl and the last two under Chris Klieman.Montana has made the second-most appearances in national championship games with seven -- including wins in 1995 and 2001 -- but they were spread out over 15 seasons, never more than two in a four-year period.---=FCS GAME OF THE WEEK=The Matchup: No. 5 Chattanooga (6-0, 4-0 Southern) at No. 8 The Citadel (5-0, 3-0)Kickoff: 3 p.m. ET at Johnson Hagood Stadium (21,000) in Charleston, South CarolinaTelevision: Fox Sports SoutheastSeries: Chattanooga leads 30-17-2 (most recent meeting: Chattanooga won 31-23 at home on Nov. 14, 2015)The Skinny: Two of the five FCS unbeaten teams meet for the 50th time. They shared the Southern Conference title last season -- Chattanoogas third straight and The Citadels first since 1992.Chattanooga senior Derrick Craine holds a slight lead among SoCon rushers with 113.3 yards per game, averaging 7.2 yards per carry. Alejandro Bennifield has thrown for 15 touchdowns and is No. 1 in the conference in passing efficiency (176.6). Strong against the run and pass, the Mocs lead the FCS in scoring defense (12.2 ppg) and total defense (225.7 ypg). They have allowed only one touchdown in the first half, outscoring opponents 148-10 by halftime.The Citadel spent last Wednesday to Sunday away from campus (winning at North Greenville Thursday night) because of Hurricane Matthew. Coming off back-to-back 500-yard rushing games for the first time in school history, the Bulldogs lead the FCS in rushing yards per game (388.8). They feature five of the top nine rushers in the SoCon, led by fullback Tyler Renew (third, 83 ypg). The defense has 17 sacks, with seven players between two and three apiece, and has allowed only 14 points in the fourth quarter.Prediction: Both teams are excellent at controlling game clock. Chattanooga will want to play with a lead and take The Citadel out of its growing rhythm.
