Unless I'm missing some, which I probably am, that's 95 games. Assuming the average of about 10% are "upsets," that's 9 or 10 wins. Who are they?



I'm gonna go with...

8/30 - EWU @ Idaho
9/1 - W&M @ Maryland
9/1 - InSU @ Indiana
9/1 - ASU @ East Carolina
9/1 - Towson @ Kent State
9/1 - Southern @ New Mexico (C'mon TJ, doesn't get much easier than UNM )
9/8 - NAU @ UNLV
9/8 - UNH @ Minnesota
9/8 - NDSU @ Colorado State
9/15 - Cal Poly @ Wyoming

Another good shot with Stony Brook @ Army on 9/28.

Towson @ LSU

I'm predicting a good day for the Tigers.

I know you guys don't have as many teams out west to schedule, but this double dipping has gotten out of control. I don't want to hear any more complaints about the Big Sky not getting as many teams in the playoffs.

Nah it's ok. None of those teams have a chance at the playoffs anyway.

You were much nicer before you became a mod. Grizza was right.

Kalm, you know I was just kidding.












SUU has a shot.

Seems like there's one team that's missing from playing an FBS'er....can't quite put my finger on it......

You are thinking of MSU.

I'd have to go with the first one on the list - EWU @ Idaho, though the Eagles beating the Vandals wouldn't exactly be an upset.

Someone said that there is 95 games this year? I've got 1 likely W (EWU over Idaho), 1 toss up that I give the FCS the advantage, and 4 toss up games the FCS comes out on the bottom side.

That is 6 games I'd give a shot this year. Obviously crazy things happen, but doesn't look good this year.

I'll say 3 or 4 of these upsets happen. Not that I have a great idea of what teams like ECU or IlSU or InSU return or anything...

I thought Colorado State was going to just forfeit so they wouldn't get any injuries from playing NDSU?

He has become quite the dick. I will let AZ straighten him out tomorrow.

I just hope UND can make it a game like they did with Fresno State last year and Northern Illinois in 2010. Upset will be nice but I won't be holding my breath.
