Similar to my team, the early season looked really promising, then conference season rolled around and I came crashing down. Still, I am sitting at a fairly respectable 46-7 for the year so far. Here is my attempt at perfection this week.
EWU at SAC---The Eagles looked like they were back on track after last week's impressive win, and they head out this weekend to a place they have never lost in. But with two weeks to prepare and an odd sort of confidence, this Hornet team is ready for them...SAC 38, EWU 28.
ISU at UM---All the Bengals needed to find was a quarterback to lead this potent team and they might have found one. But to win in the Grizzlies den is a tall order for even the best of teams, and this Grizzly team seems to be rolling now...UM 31, ISU 26.
MSU at CP---The Bobcats were able to come from behind last week and get a win. However, if they try that again, the Mustangs may be able to keep them down. One the road, keep them down and hold on...MSU 24, CP 20.
UNC at NAU---The Lumberjacks are still smarting from last week's game that got away from them. Then the Bears are coming in with some confidence in getting a win at the end of their game. Could it be close? Probably not...NAU 38, UNC 7.
SUU at PSU---After a fairly good start, the Vikings pretty much did not show up for their game last week, and now come home for a tussle with a Thunderbirds crew that had a chance last week. Can the Thunderbirds steal this road game from the struggling Vikings?...PSU 31, SUU 20.
UCD at North Dakota---The Aggies are still a good team but with the loss last week, their season is pretty much on the line as they return to the state of North Dakota this week. With their backs against the wall, no game will be easy as the pressure mounts...UCD 28, North Dakota 21.
WSU at UI---Even with their strange loss last week, the Vandals showed the week before how tough it is to play in their home field. Now they get a strong Wildcat team, fresh off of taking care of business against a good Mo Valley squad. Can the Vandals win again?...WSU 21, UI 17.
SuperHornet's Athletics Hall of Fame includes Jacksonville State kicker Ashley Martin, the first girl to score in a Division I football game. She kicked 3 PATs in a 2001 game for J-State.
I think I can go with Venus' picks this week, though I'd probably widen the spread for the PSU-Idalol, NAU-UNC, and Griz-Bungles games. I'm also tempted to pick the Sioux over the Manure Pile, but I'm no longer certain that's a viable pick....

PSU plays SUU, Weber plays Idalol.
Same rationale applies, though....

Missed the UC Davis game so I ended up 6-1 this week. Currently at 52-8.
