What is the I-AA GOTW?

BTW, I had half a mind to leave out UM @ EWU since it would seem Montana fans are like Pavlov's dog when the Griz are in a poll.

Allright UNI, this is your final chance with me. Lose and I am going to stop following your football program and only focus on basketball and wrestling.

What happens if they win and then lose to the Griz next weekend?

Let's not be ridiculous. EWU will beat UNI next weekend.

I chose Liberty/Villanova. And not b/c they are Big South. For me, I want to see how legit they are.

Were you wearing a flat-brim while you typed that?

Well, outside of the beatdown that is likely coming for the Griz, I went with the Coastal game - get an idea if they are anywhere close to legit or not.

Yawn. We lost by 10 last time and are playing much better on both sides of the ball now.

Just have a hunch South Dakota State may have one big game left. I chose the SDSU-NDSU game.

. I didn't want to be a homer. I think it'll be a tough game. Neither team overpowering the other.

I'd be surprised if Coastal lost that one. Richmond may be the worst remaining squad in the field and teams that are that turnover-prone just don't tend to go very far.

You guys looked amaze balls against USD and those 7 gifts from the Cats.

As did you against that team that's about to drop its program...the only "competitive" game you've played in the last month.

SDSU @ NDSU

(EWU 0-5 v UNI)

I don't know, I thought you guys were at least corruptive with us.

I think this will be a close game and I'd take UR over Fordham, Chatty, JaxSt (maybe the most overrated program of the last 10 years), and maybe even SHSU.

We're going to be downright assaultive this time.

I'd take Richmond over Montana, too. Montana hasn't beaten anybody of note and they don't seem to be able to stop anyone who can pass the ball (and no, beating a defenseless MSU team doesn't count).

Take the Griz out of Grizzyworld and they are nothing special. Heck, recently they aren't even special in Grizzyworld.

I agree with my UD friends here. You need to consider that their starting QB Strauss, who is as good a passer as there is in FCS, is now back and healthy after missing about 6 games. The backup was below average at best.

They already beat Nova and Liberty who are still alive as well. They belong for sure. Whether they beat Coastal is another question.

The inferno, the re-match, the Delaney farewell tour, Wags, JJ, VA, Coop, GATW...

Many good match-ups.

I went with PFL vs 6.93

Can't stop teams who can pass?

How about Sac State and Southern Utah? Top ten passing offenses nationally, scored 17 and 14 points against us, respectively.

MSU didn't have Prukop, but Bleksin threw for 300 yards the week before he played us, and was forced into 5 interceptions by an aggressive and over"bear"ing front 7.

Forgive me if I take this assessment with a grain of salt coming from a guy who thought Streamer U would make a title run.

Well, wouldn't THAT throw a wrinkle into everyone's bracket.
