It's weird they picked EMU for last place since they have a pretty good team with a senior QB.

I think they are way off on their EMU prediction.

They do have a pretty tough MAC schedule don't they?
@Toledo
@NIU
@CMU
@Miami
Ohio and BG for their other cross overs

Sounds about right.
RE: CFN Prediction 5-3? - MiamiHuskie - 07-11-2017 11:56 AM
And Toledo losing to Nevada. I think the Rockets will that one big.

5-3 with 2-2 OOC seems like the right area ish
RE: CFN Prediction 5-3? - cagy cager - 07-11-2017 02:49 PM
does that mean the NIU Buffalo game is a double forfeit?

I see NIU more as a 5-7 to 6-6 team. Ceiling is 8 wins and floor is 3. Without any qb and same coaching staff deficiencies , it's hard to imagine a winning record. Unfortunately we are short in two of the most important areas qb and coaching

They won 5 games in the conference with a bunch of idiots playing QB and the same coaching staff last year. It's hard to foresee them winning less than 5 conference games.

Seriously. This rag-tag, QB-less NIU squad is 11-5 in Mac play the last two "oh so terrible, the wheels are falling off, Carey sucks" years. And those 5 loses? 1)13-1 WMU on road. 2) 9-4 Toledo neutral site, lost lead with 1:00 left in game. 3) double OT loss to CMU. 4) ohio by 5 after losing 3rd string QB to injury and a walk-on stepping in.5) CMU where we had 4 TOs
RE: CFN Prediction 5-3? - Dog Fan - 07-12-2017 07:42 AM
Agree with the 5-3 conference finish. And 1-3 in OOC puts us at 6-6, where I see us finishing.

Which proves that the FCS MVC is better than the lowly MAC.
