After trying unsuccessfully to turn the screws the first 3 quarters, the refs will throw in the towel in the 4th, and we'll pull away.

I went 11/12 last week, so I will say my opinion is a decent one. We will see if WMU is really that good or they caught USC with their pants down.

Honestly the only games I would be surprised at would be Austin Peay beating Miami and UAPB beating Akron. Every other game could go against what the majority pick.

toddjnson, please explain to the good poster what happened when we went to USC, as it relates to the position of their pants.

I'm shocked by the Howard bandwagon. Last year they were one of the worst teams in FCS.

This year they are the darling of Collegiate Sports Nation MAC forum.

What's another surprise this year???

If Haynes is coaching I might reverse my pick, but having Treadwell on the sidelines is the kiss of death for a Kent State team with an abysmal offense going against a confident Howard team imo.

It's not so much Howard...it's Kent State.

Don Treadwell is now at the helm. Combine that with the program actively seeking walk-ons at key positions....what a mess. I don't have confidence in them beating any team.
