Upset alerts…

UTM: They have a very good run defense that could force UNH into more passing situations.

SEMO: gifted home field and Illinois state has yet beat a with even a .500 record.

NAU: if Maverick McIvor is still injured.

Edit: I didn’t see the lines.

Good for Lehigh I have a personal dislike for Richmond a person in their fan base made a negative comment about my school NORTH CAROLINA CENTRAL last year on YouTube saying that we weren't good enough to be in the FCS PLAYOFFS.

[Mvemjsunpx]

Geoffrey Jamiel gets a 54-yard TD catch (most of it after the catch); 2PC no good.
