Cinci @ Miami (OH) ESPNU
MY LINE: Cinci 37-20 Bearcats should roll here.

Rutgers @ Temple ESPN+
MY LINE: Rutgers 27-23 Based on scores right now, I give Rutgers a slight nod.

Tulane @ Kansas St B12N/ESPN+
MY LINE: Tulane 27-22 Normally I wouldn't give Tulane a road win at a B12 school but KSt hasn't played anyone worth bragging about and Tulane is solid.

Kansas @ Houston ESPNU
MY LINE: Kansas 36-31 Houston's OT games back-to-back weeks has me wondering if they are up to taking down a surging Kansas team that knocked off WVU.

Campbell @ ECU ESPN+
MY LINE: ECU 48-18 The ECU defense shouldn't have a problem with Campbell. I think our offense gets it going but somehow, I feel we will have 1-2 field goals in the game.... and unless we fix special teams maybe a blocked PAT again.

Jacksonville St @ Tulsa ESPN+
MY LINE: Tulsa 41-30 Tulsa isn't in a position to overlook Jacksonville State IMO. The Golden Hurricanes need to show up and take care of business to get the win.

Arkansas St @ Memphis ESPN+
MY LINE: Memphis 35-30 Memphis should win this but I feel Ark St will make a game of it.

USF @ #_ Florida SECN
MY LINE: Florida 37-22 Florida should be able to win this easily.

SMU @ Maryland FS1
MY LINE: SMU 33-23 While both are undefeated, I'd put more stock into SMU's victories and therefore I am going with them in this one.

UCF @ FAU CBSSN
MY LINE: UCF 27-23 UCF has been looking kind of sketch and FAU has shown a few things. I think the game will be close with UCF finishing it off narrowly.

UNT @ UNLV ?
MY LINE: UNT 27-24 Closer than some realize IMO. I think UNT is slightly better than UNLV as of right now.

Ga So @ UAB ?
MY LINE: Ga So 30-26 I'm willing to buy that Ga So is feeling themselves a little bit after last weekend but I also think UAB will rebound from last weekend so I am giving a narrow edge to Ga So.

Charlotte @ Ga St ESPN+
MY LINE: Ga St 31-26 Both teams are winless, but Charlotte has been looking a lot worse than Ga St so I am giving Ga St the narrow win.

Louisiana @ Rice ESPN+
MY LINE: Louisiana 34-27 Not trusting Rice just yet.

UTSA @ #_ Texas LHN
MY LINE: Texas 37-30 Somehow, I think UTSA will get screwed in this game, but they are playing with fire being in all of these OT games.

It is what it is, till it isn't.

I was gonna say it was more you overestimated the SBC
Though you did get Memphis…

Also, you say “I couldn’t have been more wrong” on UNT but your score of 27-24 looked a lot like the actual game score of 27-30 in the 3Q… before UNLV went on a tear to finish them off. But yeah, you’re a genius when you know the teams a little better.

UNLV hasn't shown to rip off 21 unanswered .... game 1 doesn't count though LOL.

Charlotte had not shown that ability yet...

The way Ga So and UAB had been playing that was a toss up... probably should have read more into Ga So coming down from the high of the Nebraska win, UAB wasn't showing me enough to put them over by a lot.

Rice blowing out Louisiana did come as a surprise though...
