**South Dakota State enters its 2026 FCS season opener as a heavy favorite against Stetson, with preseason rankings and roster depth driving the market consensus.** The No. 3-ranked Jackrabbits, under second-year head coach Dan Jackson, return key contributors including quarterback Chase Mason and multiple all-conference selections on both sides of the ball after a 9-5 campaign that ended in the second round of the FCS playoffs. They host the non-scholarship Pioneer League Hatters at Dana J. Dykhouse Stadium on August 29, marking the programs' first meeting. Stetson, in its second year under head coach Mike Jasper, averaged just 18 points per game while surrendering 39 last season and faces a steep talent and depth mismatch against an MVFC contender. Recent SDSU camp reports highlight roster stability and continuity, while Stetson relies on returning quarterbacks Kael Alexander and Chris Stephenson in a road environment against a ranked home side. The gap in conference strength, scholarship status, and recent form positions SDSU as the clear consensus choice, though FCS openers can occasionally feature variance from early-season execution.
