Thought Sac played well for the most part. Not sure they will fare to well at SD this week. Essentially the same road trip 2 weeks in a row. They are physical enough but give up too many big plays.

Worried for MSU after their collapse at the end of the season and playing an NDSU team that seems to be peaking. Maybe the outdoor venue is an advantage but NDSU is so disciplined on defense, don't believe the MSU offense will put up more than 24 points, not sure they can stop NDSU's offense. A real chance for their HC to show his stuff. Coin flip.

Saluki's smoked Nicholls. Idaho should win this one, but BSC drew the short straw on second round games by getting 3 MVFC teams.

Delaware didn't look like much against Lafayette. Montana should roll. They played a lot of close games the first 5 or so games then found their identity. It's the exact reverse of Eastern.

Could easily be 1-3 in round two.
 
Took the word right outta my mouth. So. ill got to rest most all of their starters so Idaho is a good team if they don't beat themselves. Want to watch all the games but MSU vs NDSU looks to be good...no snow and 34 degrees...course that could change but dislike NDSU. Sac St could get cruched SDSU is good.
Montana vs SDSU final?... haven't seen to much of Montana this year.

Sac is playing the other South Dakota (coyotes). Haven't seen anything of them they barely beat S. Ill and ND at the end of the season. Sac might have a chance... Massey has it 40/60. Tough being on the road 2 straight weeks. Drove right by this school a couple of months ago and never noticed, sort of like Cheney :). Montana started slooooooow this season but managed to hold on to wins but they were downright scary in the brawl vs. MSU. If they check their ego's and show up, they should smoke Delaware (going FBS in 2 years). If Kats play like they did vs Montana; NDSU will smoke them too. Massey has it slightly NDSU right now, essentially a coin flip. I like both QB's for Kats and they may need them. Not sure NDSU saw any option teams this season but they are so disciplined it shouldn't be to big an issue, they will get some stops. SDSU plays Mercer and Mercer didn't really beat the better teams on it's schedule. Massey has it as 99% SDSU.

Can't help you with the gambling aspects

Albany spanking Richmond at the half and Villanova beating Youngstown.... hmm. Moc's up on Furman is a bit of a surprise.

7-7 now at Furman. About 1500 people in the stands. Not a good look.

Really good game MSU VS NDSU...funny how bison holding rarely gets called...must be me.

Never does. Their DL started to really push the MSU OL around in second half. Cannot believe they missed the extra point to lose this game in OT after all the great effort. Sucked hard.

Idaho looked hapless. McCoy sucked. Fell asleep to see they won in OT. It was hard to watch. Albany will put a spanking on them if they don't get their shit together.

Montana looked good. Furman has a good D but no O.
