MAC has the potential to go 5-0, but three road games make that tough. I'm figuring 3-2.
55% chance James Madison wins at home over AKRON
60% chance BALL STATE wins at home over Wright St
51% chance Northwestern wins at home over BOWLING GREEN
52% chance BUFFALO wins at Youngstown St
75% chance KENT STATE wins at home over Illinois St
League Games- looks like a trio of close contests.
53% chance Miami wins at home over Western
51% chance Ohio wins at Toledo
58% chance Northern wins at home over Marshall
...and 4-1 & New Orleans Knockout/University Hoops Classic Champion, UCF Golden Knights visit Tallahassee for a matchup with FAMU, before a huge home game next week with unbeaten and Great Alaska Shootout Champion, College of Charleston.
Just an FYI... :D
Ok Chip,
I guess I'm on the dark side today.
James Mad shouldn't have too much trouble with the Zips. Hope I'm wrong.
I figure YSU is a solid favorite at home vs UB. Remember they beat Toeldo by 6 or 7 just a week or so ago. And they beat us there last year (which caused the soul searching that brought that team together under Stan H.) Again, hope I'm wrong.
This BG team win on the road at NW?? I know IUPUIUPUIUPUIU beat them there, but a road win in the BIG 10 is a tall order for the Falcons this year, no matter how weak the opp. And NW and Mich are the weakest opps inthe Big 10 thisyear and BG has them both. Guess we'll see if DD can do anything with these guys.
Wright State is a handful for Ball on a good day with Tee gone, though it is a t home. I'd give the Cards a slight edge. But only slight.
Your only lock today is my Flashes at home against a ISU team that is going to take some serious MVC lumps this year.
I go 2-3 tops, maybe 1-4. :(
I like WMU, UT, and Marshall. Two road wins is a tough call, I admit.
You guys in the MAC pick thing?

If you are not, only one game played so far; you can get in before game time. Very cool stats by individual and by fan's team groups.

My picks:
Western wins at Miami
Ohio wins at Toledo
Northern wins vs Marshall
Western is too good for Miami, despite JCrewU's turnaround against UD
Ohio comes out motivated after a tough week of practice, too much depth for UT
Northern beats an inexperienced Marshall team at home, despite a strong performance by Blackshear
OOC:
JMU over Akron
Ball State over "Wright State, wrong school"
BG gets the win at Northwestern
Buffalo over YSU
Kent over ISU
Some close OOC calls...I could easily see the Akron, BG & Buffalo games going the other way.
