Anyone interested in keeping track of point totals for the year? Could be fun to have a competition to see who is the expert MVFC predictor.

Yeah, I thought about SUU, I have no confidence in SDSU this year. But I do not know much about SUU right now, so I went with the home team...

I just don't know how SDSU will be after losing Minett. They were so-so last year and I think they will be a .500 team again this year. I think Sorenson will lead the T-birds past the Jacks in a close one.

WIU's offense looks TERRIBLE so far.

I hate to overreact based on three drives or so...but....wow, with that offense they will push MSU for last in the MVFC

I didn't think WIU was good, but I thought SHSU wasn't worth a shit. Looks like WIU sucks.

Looks like Ill St hasn't gotten any better from last year either.

WIU looked very very bad.


My ISUr thoughts from another thread after last night:

Illinois State...like many I had/have high expectations for them this year. I thought/think they could challenge for a playoff spot due to their offense and if they could have found any sort of defense. I didn't think EIU was going to be good this year (I have them bottom half of the OVC) and with just watching that full game and not yet looking at the stats I have no confidence in that ISUr defense. EIU had to be close to, if not over, 300 yards passing and their WR were wide open on every single pass play that the QB had time to throw. EIU's offensive line looked pretty bad so the ISU pass rush got there at times but....wow. On the flip side ISU's offense looked about what I expected. Run game didn't blow me away...in fact outside of three big plays that run game was very unimpressive. The passing game looked good, as expected with Brown at QB. However, with that said EIU's defense shouldn't be that good this year. Oh....and EIU came away with the win.

Youngstown State didn't do anything. Don't kid yourself.

Michigan State is just a vanilla team with a vanilla quarterback and vanilla offense that doesn't beat many people more than 28-6.

ISU was weak. WIU was worse. Patty Viverito is probably disappointed right now. :(

Bullshit. YSU played well. I was particularly impressed with how well the YSU o-line played.

YSU was a 3 win FCS team last year, and they just hung with a ranked BCS team that won the Big Ten last year, for essentially over three quarters.

Obviously YSU didn't do anything--they are picked to finish 8th in their conference and were getting blown out by half-time 14-6 against a weak 17th ranked FBS team that the Citadel would probably blow off the field! :nod:
