I'm back!
Lost my username/password info from last season (sucks getting old, don't it?) so I'm back with a new account this year.
Since no one started a thread for this week and with it being Thursday already, figured I would get this show on the road..
Presbyterian @ UNC Charlotte
Monmouth @ Central Michigan
Liberty @ West Virginia (wouldn't be surprised if the Flames kept this close early)
Edward Waters @ Kennesaw State (program gets it's first win, by 30+)
CCU @ SC State (will be a better game than most think, but CCU comes out)
Elon @ Gardner-Webb
Charleston Southern @ Troy (Going out on a limb, upset special of the week. Picture this, Troy finished ranked #123 in all of FBS last year. SEC Vanderbilt finished ranked #98. This well coached, basically intact squad lost to that Vanderbilt team by 1 point, a 2-point conversion away from a win. With a whole new staff coming into Troy, being early in the season, I can see Chuck South squeezing away with this one. After all, their main issue is only showing up in full strength against the top teams right? CSU by 3.)

UNC-C > Presby - The Blue Hose are improving, but not enough to take out a FBS foe.
CMU > Monmouth - Even a middle-tier MAC is enough to hold off Monmouth.
Liberty > WVU - Turner Gill will have the Flames pumped for this one.
KSU > Edward Waters - This may be a first year program, but I get the feeling they have enough to take care of a D-II.
CCU > SC State - Blowout City.
G-W > Elon - G-W has improved in recent years, whereas Elon is regressing.
Chuck South > Troy State - Another nice FBS win for a FCS program, and nowhere near as much of a stretch as my homer prediction above....

I'm pretty much in line with this, but I don't put it past CSU to screw the pooch.

Wait, you think Liberty will beat West Virginia? Are you serious? You can't be serious?
