RE: MAC Picks wk 1
well, buffalo will lay it on duquense a lot harder than people are predicting. buffalo is good and duquense is not even a high level fcs team.
i think emu does pretty well against howard. i like their coach and howard is no fcs powerhouse either.
ball st has a habit of struggling to put away fcs teams but i think they run the ball all day against colgate and it never is that close.
bg will score a lot on w kentucky.
don't see any mac upsets in week 1. we've got our weakest teams playing the most high profile opponents and i think bc, purdue and marshall get past umass, emu and miami - although I'm hoping to be wrong.

Correction: EMU will beat Morgan State, hopefully by a nice margin. We struggled vs. FCS under English.

With the improvement of Akron and Eastern, the MAC loses just 3 games out conference. As is typical of most college football games OOC, expect blowouts.
