After getting molested by them for 8 years in a row, I think this is the year Tulane finally claims the win against Tulsa.

I nailed one line right, and was off another by 1pt...

I stunk other than that... even forgot Tulane Tulsa.

I'm ridiculously surprised MU is favored that much on the road, no way I'm touching that one this week.

Tulsa/Tulane is the game of the week. This is the season for Tulsa

Marshall 35 @ MTSU 20 (looking forward to watching this Thur on FoxSports 1)

UTEP 34 @ Rice 31 (homer upset pick against the odds. UTEP had a bye week to prepare for this game. Small improvement by the Miner defense keeps it close and just a little more consistancy by a decent UTEP offense carries the day)

Tulsa 20 @ Tulane 24

UAB 17 @ UTSA 28

La. Tech 24 @ FIU 17

UNT 35 @ USM 17

FAU 17 @ Auburn 42

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UTSA 34 UAB 21 UTSA has the better coaches and a decent crowd. Doubt UAB can handle the crowd on the road. Whether its outside against LSU with 90,000 fans or inside against Tulane with 500 fans.

I like our chances vs the BYE... but if Shane doesn't get time in the pocket, I could see us taking an "L" this week.

....I freaking hate Bye weeks.

Marshall @ MTSU: I like Marshall and that swarming defense
UTEP @ Rice: I think Ross might be too much for the porous run d of UTEP
Tulsa @ Tulane: Tulane has my respect after beating UNT and ECU
UAB @ UTSA: UTSA's homecoming. We need a W and I think UAB is a very winnable game. Hopefully bye week has cured ST woes
LaTech @ FIU: Not a fan of either team this year but Tech should win.
UNT @ USM: 3-4 TD win
FAU @ Auburn: Beat the spread FAU

Marshall @ MTSU
MY LINE: Marshall 34-18 MTSU has been off and Marshall should be able to score at will.

Saturday 10/26/13
UTEP @ Rice
MY LINE: Rice 35-17 This won't be Rice's stumbling block to a West Title.

Tulsa @ Tulane
MY LINE: Tulane 30-28I believe more in Tulane that Tulsa in this game.

UAB @ UTSA
MY LINE: UAB 27-24BOTH teams had a bye week last week so should be well prepared for this game. I think UAB can escape on a winning FG. That said, I would not be surprised if UTSA pulled it out.

LaTech @ FIU
MY LINE: LaTech 27-24 FIU is bad still and La Tech is just better enough to squeak by.

UNT @ USM
MY LINE: UNT 35-14 I can see no reason to say UNT won't make this a blowout.

FAU @ #__ Auburn
MY LINE: Auburn 37-17 I had thought about making it a tighter score because of a possible let down from Auburn's win over TAMU but...


FUTURES:

10/26/13
Troy @ WKU

MY LINE: WKU 24-21 I am assuming it will be a tight game.

ODU @ Norfolk State
http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/scoreboard...ekNumber=9
MY LINE: ODU 35-23 ODU should roll in this.

Charlotte @ Charl So.
http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/scoreboard...ekNumber=9
MY LINE: Charl So. 35-13 I can't see Charl So. not rolling in this... especially as a road game for Charlotte.

That is my story and I might stick to it.

I don't usnderstand why I'm seeing predictions of 17 points for FAU. That'd require making a field goal..........

Maybe FAU and Auburn will be playing under Canadian rules and FAU scores on 3 singles.

Thursday 10/24

Marshall @ MTSU
Got a feeling about this one...MT by 3
Saturday 10/26/13
UTEP @ Rice
The swagger continues..Owls defeat Miners by 14
Tulsa @ Tulane
Tulsa may be starting to get it now, but Tulane has been enjoying a great season. Hoping their defense is up to the challenge. Wave by 3...In overtime
UAB @ UTSA
Every time I pick UAB to win, they lose. When I pick them to lose, they ...Oh, never mind! This is a must win for the Blazers, & they've had 2 weeks to prepare. The offense will be ready, but that defense? Who the hell knows? UAB by 1.
LaTech @ FIU
Panther Power! FIU by 6, "Skippy's" lost his mojo. Upset Special!

UNT @ USM
No way North Texas loses this one. Mean Green by 17.
FAU @ #__ Auburn FAU puts a major scare into Auburn, but Tigers will pull this one out by 6. Complacency may set in for AU this week after their big win at College Station last Saturday.

FUTURES:

Thursday 10/24
Marshall @ MTSU
Marshall SU
MTSU +8.5. Spread seems way too high for a road favorite, unless MTSU is imploding. Marshall by a TD.

Saturday 10/26/13
UTEP @ Rice
Rice SU
UTEP +17.5. Few too many points. UTEP isn't good, but they aren't nearly as bad as NMSU.

Tulsa @ Tulane
Tulane SU and +3.5. The oddsmakers do not like Tulane for some reason. Not even favored in at home.

UAB @ UTSA
UTSA SU
UAB +7. I thought this would be a UAB win in the preseason, but UTSA has impressed me. This would be their first home win of the season.

LaTech @ FIU
La Tech SU
FIU +5. FIU should be able to keep it close in a home game after a bye.

UNT @ USM
North Texas SU and -11

FAU @ Auburn
Auburn SU and -24. I'm guessing a final of 42-14.

FUTURES:
10/26/13
Troy @ WKU
Western Kentucky SU
Troy +10.5. Not calling WKU to cover any spread until they get a handle on their turnover issue.

ODU @ Norfolk State
Old Dominion SU

Charlotte @ Charl So.
Charleston Southern SU


Only picking two favorites, expecting a lot of close games this weekend.

I agree with the idea that Auburn will have some sort of letdown after the win over TA&M. But I think the talent disparity is just too great for FAU to win the game outright. Could be close, though.

If ODU only wins by 7 i'll be legitimately upset.

Marshall -10.5 @ MTSU
Marshall wins but MTSU covers.

UTEP @ Rice -18
UTEP covers as Rice sleepwalks to a 10 point victory

Tulsa @ Tulane no line
Tulane gets turnovers, they win. They don't and they lose. I think Tulane is overrated... Tulsa is improving. Take Tulsa. Bowl eligibility will have to wait.

UAB @ UTSA -3.5
UTSA will not be snake bitten again on ST. If they play like they have been in 4Q for the first 3Q, should be a 10 point W.

LaTech -6 @ FIU
Pillow fight of week in C-USA. FIU covers but La Tech wins.

UNT -10.5 @ USM
Gut check time for USM. I think UNT gets caught peeking for Halloween home game against Rice and USM surprises. UNT road woes continue and they escape by skin-of-teeth w/ a 24-21 victory as USM finds a way to lose vs. UNT finding a way to win.

FAU @ #__ Auburn -25.5
Go to Vegas and lay down $$ for FAU. Heard some close to Rice program say that FAU is the best D they have played all year...better than A&M and all others.. Auburn hangover results in nailbiter game in 4Q.

Troy @ WKU -8
WKU stops shooting itself in foot. Equal talent but home field for Hilltoppers. Another good bet.

Yeah....gotta say we should be favored by a LOT in this game. If we don't win by 30+ then we aren't doing it right. Backups in during 3q
