There's no luck involved here. This is a 100% skills based exercise.

ISU

I changed this to Missouri.

 

[InTheBlood45]

Vanderbilt

 

[HBAM]

[HawkAlum2002]

I didn't even realize when we played UMass that they are FBS now.

 

[QChawks]

Mizzou

Missouri

FBS since 2011. Football-only MAC until 2015, then Independent until joining MAC in all sports this year.

 

[Jonesy5960]

Changing my selection to Missouri!!!

 

[Mesahawk]

Mizzou

 

[83Hawk]

Indiana

 

[HuskerTherapist]

Houston

 

[Jonesy5960]

Indiana

This better be one of those hedge bets where you'll be happy with a win but this takes a bit of the sting out of a loss.

No. I picked Indiana this week because they are likely to beat Iowa and they play Oregon in their next game. Just playing the odds as I think Oregon wins that one.

Missouri

 

[Ironman39]

[KuwaitHawk]

Lot of Missouri picks this week, Missouri for me.

 

[KuwaitHawk]

God help us if Missouri loses

 

[Ironman39]

God help us if Missouri loses

I'd watch.

 

[QChawks]

God help us if Missouri loses

It would likely be the largest spread upset of all time

 

[Ironman39]

It would likely be the largest spread upset of all time

They're currently -44.5 (not sure what the record is for biggest spread upset).

Iowa beat them by 40.








I hope they lose.

 

[Scott559]

Another vote for Mizzou.

 

[BigGameJames42]

Houston

Just want to throw this out there since I see it has happened. You are only allowed pick a team ONCE. (Unless the rules have changed.)

 

[QChawks]

They're currently -44.5 (not sure what the record is for biggest spread upset).

according to google it would be second all-time

The largest NCAA point-spread upset in modern college football history occurred on September 2, 2017, when the Howard Bison defeated the UNLV Rebels 43-40 as a 45-point underdog. Caylin Newton, Cam Newton's younger brother, led the Bison with 330 total yards and three touchdowns to achieve the historic victory against the FBS opponent.

North Texas

 

[BubsFinn]

Give me Vandy because I think next week the Crimson Tide is going to still be butt hurt over last year and cheap shot Pavia in the first quarter.

 

[HMB Trumpet]

Mizzou

Several good options this week.

 

[Obviously Oblivious]

Vanderbilt

 

[lonestar50]

I'm taking Vanderbilt and I'm cheering for UMASS

 

[KuwaitHawk]

UMass is collecting a pay day against Mizzou.
