FIU host Pittsburgh
Marshall host Ohio
UAB host Alabama A&M
ODU host Eastern Michigan
FAU host Tulsa
UTSA at Okie St
USM at Alabama
UTEP host New Mexico St
Rice at Texas A&M

bold games are a W.

UTSA is the only one with a sliver of hope for an upset IMO.

More than 4 would be a great week.

I picked 5 wins. The ones in bold. Hoping that it'll be 6 and UTSA can win.

100% nailed it.

5 wins...lets keep out perfect record vs the G5 in tact boys! The only game that kinda scares me is the Tulsa @ FAU game

+1 and go UTSA.

I see 4. Pretty much the same as above, but I'm not predicting an FAU win over Tulsa.

FAU game was my question mark also. I voted four until FAU proves something to me. Please make me wrong

Tulsa will beat FAU... but why is UTSA such a longshot against okie state? OSU QB Walsh broke his foot. Backup played well, but it was against Missouri State. Seems like a fairly even draw. I like UTSA's defense in that one.

I got the Road Runners beating the Cowpokes!! #Beep-Beep!!!

I got 5. I do not see any way there could be 6.

The reason I thought we have a reasonable chance to beat Tulsa is that we're playing home and we're expected to have D'Joun and Quez back.

I got 4. Don't have that much faith in FAU, but hope I'm wrong.

I got faith in FAU. I think they will win that game.

I don't believe Okie State's backup, Garmon was ready to play last week. He should be polished by game time. Although he is not the runner that JW Walsh is he certainly has a stronger arm. UTSA may not be able to match Okie State's speed. Tyreek Hill, their RB/WR hybrid, is supposedly the fastest guy in all of college football.

Their offense line is shaky and Garmon looked inaccurate when pressured or flushed out of the pocket vs. Missouri State. Our only hope will be for our defensive line getting constant pressure and forcing turnovers.

I'm with Tribe.. I see 4, as I just don't see FAU winning. Tulsa's not a bad team...

And as tough and well as UTSA played against Arizona and Houston. Okie State is on a WHOLE 'nudder level now their QB has some first string practice time. It won't be ugly , but it definitely won't be an upset.

IF FIU didn't look so god awful so far, I'd LOVE to pick them against the Pitt squad.. but they do look god-awful, so I can't pick them.

What's that smell?

Oh, DaSaintFan just showed up.

Exactly, FAU has played 1 good team & 1 very good team but the offense has been abysmal so far.

I have 3

FIU host Pittsburgh -- FIU LOST
Marshall host Ohio -- MARSHALL WON
UAB host Alabama A&M -- UAB WON
ODU host Eastern Michigan -- ODU WON
FAU host Tulsa
UTSA at Okie St
USM at Alabama -- USM LOST
UTEP host New Mexico St
Rice at Texas A&M

3-2 on the day so far
