Can we pick multiple games? Obviously, CCU/Elon is going to be good. Will the SoCon succumb to another Big South team? So many good choices....

Tough choice. 3 games really grab my attention. SDSU/NDSU, EWU/SHSU this is who I voted for, UD/JMU

I don't know much about them, does SDSU stand a chance this week?

There's really only one game this week...JMU at Delaware.

Y'all get to watch and see what 30 minutes (or more, if Brock gets his head on straight) of #ATTACK football means.

Panic time in Harrisonburg as the Dukes watch UD pass them again. :nod:

You bet. I think SDSU will give them a game.

I went against my EC(b) instinct and went with EWU and SHSU because the loser could lose a critical home game come December. JMU/UD, while a good one, are just fighting for 2nd-8th place in the CAA.

Besides this game, EWU and SHSU will lose at least one more game...EWU probably two more. :nod:

A lot of good games this week. I pulled a homer and voted UNI/McNeese even though SHST/EWU is probably the true GOTW. It will be interesting to see if either team is the real deal or not.

Should be some great games this weekend. Ii picked EWU@SHSU, but McNeese@UNI was a close 2nd. Hard to argue with a lot of other games though.

I think there's a pretty good chance we'll beat them at home, but I don't see MSU or Cal Poly being much of a threat to them.

Had to go with EWU @ SHSU, not only for the comparison value, but seed value as well.

If EWU beats SHSU, Montana mugs EWU and takes the seed.

don't forget that with the expanded format to 24 teams, there will now be 8 seeds instead of 5, with those 8 seeded teams receiving the first round bye. (then the remaining 16 teams will probably be matched up with geography having a big influence so as to maximize the number of "bus" games in the first two rounds).

Sorry, I was specifically referring to the #2 seed, opposite NDSU. There's only a couple teams out West that can land the #2. SHSU losing helps put that where Montana can do something about it.

Yeah like the geniuses who voted "Harvard of the West" vs NAU. Jizzly logic is hilarious.
