UC Davis is ranked No. 8 in the FCS while Mercer is ranked No. 11, setting up what should be an exciting contest.
For the Aggies of UC Davis, the big question is how redshirt freshman quarterback Caden Pinnick will play. Can he keep this offense humming and lead a return trip to the FCS playoffs?
The Bears have experience under center as DJ Smith is back for his second season as the team’s starting quarterback, but injuries marred his 2024 campaign. If he’s healthy in 2025, how far can he take Mercer?
UC Davis will also play a nationally televised game on Sept. 6, when the team visits Washington in a game that will be aired on Big Ten Network, and its Nov. 15 game against Big Sky opponent Montana State is set to air on ESPN2. As for Mercer, this is its only nationally televised contest of 2025.
