Having Ill State (5-0/2-0) @ WIU (3-4/1-2)

but not having VU (5-1/3-0) @ W&M (4-2/1-1) makes no sense.

Granted W&M just got stomped at UNH, but WIU has a losing record and is in the bottom half of the MVFC.

Me thinks VU blows out William & Mary. W&M is good, but VU is that much better.

Went with SDSU vs UNI, this could end the playoff hopes for UNI or put SDSU at the brink with 3 losses and NDSU still on the schedule in Fargo. UNI get the Bison at home, NDSU vs INST could be a good battle, as with ILST vs WIU.

Good battle or not, a team with a losing record in mid Oct, both overall and in conference, ain't game of the week material, esp when there's 2 other better games in the same conference.

I went with INST @ NDSU..

Meh, minor oversight. WIU gave NDSU their closest game in 14 years and 2 of the other losses were Wisconsin and Northwestern. Make your own poll.

In any other year, it would be Towson State at Delaware, hands down. Too bad both are down this year.

My off-the-board vote THIS year is Villanova at B&M. It's about the only decent game on the slate....

How is MSU/Weber not on this list. The Bobcats will score 70 points, but will give up AT LEAST 700 yards and 60 points. And I will NOT do my own thread.
