Not a great week.

What is the I-A game of the week?

Would anyone outside of the two fan bases ever watch these?...

Arkansas State at Indiana
Bowling Green at Temple
Eastern Michigan at Ball State
Houston at Rice
Buffalo at Northern Illinois
UTEP at UAB
Louisiana-Monroe at Western Kentucky
Tulane at Tulsa
Kent State at Toledo
Louisiana-Lafayette at Troy
Florida International at North Texas
New Mexico State at Fresno State

Iowa @ Michigan.

I think the season for each of these teams hinges on this game. For Michigan it is a chance to prove they are better than the played last week. I believe they are, the two picks in the endzone really changed the game. For Iowa it is a chance to prove the Arizona loss was a complete fluke and they deserve the preseason hype they had, as they have fallen pretty hard since that Arizona loss.


Oh, and it’s Michigan’s homecoming. If I’m not mistaken the last time Iowa was at Michigan for a homecoming game they beat the stuffing, , out of Michigan something like 39-3.

Even with all new players and staff, I think that still rings deep within the program.

Oh, and it is a chance for Michigan to rebound after last seasons heartbreaking 2 point loss at Iowa’s homecoming when they had the ball with a shot to win with less than 3 minutes left.

Houston and Fresno State are good teams, entertaining. But beyond that, nope.

As for Iowa-Michigan, I am cheering for the asteroid!

Ohio State vs Wisconsin because everyone thinks OSU will get smashed with the dreaded #1 curse.

Arkansas vs Auburn. Two of the best QBs in the nation and neither team has much of a defense, so it should be fun, also has some major implications on the SEC West race.

Umm, McElroy is nowhere near one of the best QB's in the nation. Not even top 15.

Since when does McElroy play for Arkansas or Auburn?

Quick tidbit: Wisconsin is 25-3 in night games.

I meant Newton. Can't tell those rubes from Bama apart.

I took whorns/huskers cause I want to see UT go down in burnt orange flames and Austin to go on suicide watch

Arkansas is #2 in scoring D and #3 in total defense. I would say stats wise Auburn's Defense is average.

Way to go WIsconsin!

Way to shit the bed Nebraska!

65-43...I'd say it is safe to assume that Arkansas doesn't have much of a defense (also that Auburn has a really good offense).

Do you still believe that he isn't near the top in the nation

Michigan State is really good. Boise is the best team in the country. And it isn't even close.
