Good picks. I would love for one more undergog to win.
 
Crazy that NAU is favored by a touchdown against an FBS. Tells you how bad UTEP is. They went winless last season. Also think UC Davis should beat FBS San Jose St. Hoping Weber and PSU give their FBS opponents a game.
 
THURSDAY, AUGUST 30
Weber State @ Utah - Wont be the beating it was last time but I still feel Utah wins by at least 3 scores.
Western Illinois @ Montana State - Gonna be a low scoring game, game is won by a Montana State defensive score.
UC Davis @ San Jose State - Davis has a great QB and one of the nation's best receivers. But not sure what else they have right now. Spartans in a come from behind win.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 31
Western State Colorado @ Idaho State - Idaho State should hang 60+ on these guys.
Portland State @ Nevada - Portland State needs to take advantage of the talent they have. Nevada wont lose to an FCS team 2 years in a row.

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 1
3:30 PM Cal Poly @ North Dakota State - I'm hoping Poly can keep it competitive, but I think NDSU runs away big with this one.
McNeese State @ Northern Colorado - Still not sold on a Collins led UNC team
Central Washington @ Eastern Washington - Eastern starts slow. Finishes with big win.
Northern Arizona @ UTEP - NAU better come out and wipe off the stain losing to San Diego at home in the playoffs left.
North Alabama @ Southern Utah - Southern Utah is good at home....except against Weber State.
St. Francis (IL) @ Sacramento State - Hornets BIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIG!
Northern Iowa @ Montana - Northern Iowa just cant seem to beat Montana, even when they probably should.
Idaho @ Fresno State - I honestly think the Vandals keep this closer than most think.
 
Since we are in the OOC, I just want to see Big Sky schools win. I'm a fan of our conference rivals this week. The more Big Sky wins the better it is for seeding and teams trying to get into the playoffs come November.

And...of course I'd love to see a Weber victory in Salt Lake on Thursday night, but, like Wildcat said, probably isn't meant to be. But, if there was a time the Cats could pull off an upset, it would be right now.

EWU only a 14.5 point favorite against D2?

Central Washington is a very good D2 program. Went 11-0 in the '17 regular season and lost in double OT to the eventual national champion during the playoffs.
 
Results from Thursday:

Weber St 10 Utah 41
Western Illinois 23 Montana St 26
UC Davis 44 San Jose St 38

Two very nice wins by conference teams. Could be very difficult to win the conference this season.

I went 3-0 on the night ;-)
 
Results from Friday:

Western St 10 Idaho St 45
Portland St 19 Nevada 72

Embarrassing loss by PSU to a Nevada team that isn't supposed to be very good. Looks like Vikings will be cellar dwellers again.
