ODU (6-1/3-1)@ UD (5-2/2-2) by 17. I know UD among their injuries has got Donnelly playing for the injured Hurley at QB, they lost their starting center, and one of their best defensive players, their LB Worrilow, is questionable.
URI (0-7/0-4) @ UNH (6-2/4-1) by 38. This game should be UGLY.
TU(4-3/3-1) @ Villanova (6-2/4-1) by 7. That is IF West plays. If No West, then I'll change it to VU by 7.
GST (1-7/1-4) @ JMU (5-2/3-1) 38-10 1st start for Birdsong at QB for JMU. It really doesn’t matter who’s playing/not playing/injured for JMU in this one.
Maine (2-5/1-3) @ W&M (2-5/1-3) by 10. 2 weeks ago Maine lost by 5 @ TU (although that game wasn't as close as the score indicated, as Maine got a garbage TD with less than a minute. Maine lost last week at home by 7 to UNH in a game that was statistically closer. Going with W&M because they are at home, coming off of a bye week the week after their 2OT loss @ JMU.
Bye: UR

GD it, my bad, fixed it. I had it right in the standings above. I must have been thinking UD when I put the 5-2/2-2.

New Hampshire @ Rhode Island 48-13 URI is the worst team in all of the FCS.
Delaware @ Old Dominion 27-45 Matchups favor ODU and UD is beset with injuries. Porous UD pass defense vs ODU spread. Delaware has a solid but traditional running game. QB Donnelly is an efficient underneath passer but not a runner. If ODU plays big on the DL, then it should get more than enough chances to score.
Maine @ William & Mary 24-21 Tough one to call. This should be VERY close. I thnk it will come down to whether Caprio or Ortiz starts at QB for W&M. I am picking Maine based on Caprio being the starting QB.
Georgia State @ James Madison 9-43 Perfect timing for JMU to give it's freshman QB Birdsong some experience.
Towson @ Villanova 17-31 Lack of home attendance, T. West, Trevor and other players, Jesus, parents now invloved.....Towson is reeling under distractions this week that have now made their way into mainstream media. This could either bring them together as a team, or tear them to pieces.
Having an away game may actually be an advantage fo TU. Still, I think it's all too much given that this is a close matchup even under ideal circumstances.

I was the only one on here who picked TU over Why did everyone else on here pick VU? We you all assuming that West (who had 222 all purpose yds vs VU) wouldn't play?
Sure if West doesn't play, I think TU loses to VU, just like they did @ ODU. Conversely if West had played against ODU, I think TU would have won it.

Once again I have to correct you.
Please check my picks. I had TU.
Everyone's pick had NOTHING to do with West. It had everything to do with the turmoil surrounding the actions of Ambrose. They thought it would be a big distraction. I went opposite of that.
