Week 10

Week 06 Review

Among games with a NET of greater than 1 the was a pitiful 4-9 (pushes count as a loss). The upsets (Virginia Tech, Pittsburgh, USC) really contributed to this terribleness.

There is now only one team left who is perfect (UL Lafayette Ragin' Cajuns football) and a few are perfect in the other direction: Akron, Ga Tech, and Vanderbilt are all 0-5 .

Georgia Southern Eagles vs. the South Alabama Jags slightly favors the Jags by the however, their only wins are the Nebraska Huskers in Week 1 and UL-Monroe
last week. If this was in my pick 'em I'd probably take the Eagles.

The are up against the pirates of . With a of 0.28, Temple Owls would be my pick... barely. However, digging into the games, has yet to win an FBS game . The Owls only loss was the upset against the .

The Knights look to against the this Friday. The Knights have lost two straight whereas the Bearcats have only lost against the Ohio State Buckeyes.
says UCF Football by a whisker, but I'd take Cincy and the +4 at home. Also, check out this sweet field for whoever wears black is camouflaged; game over!

The biggest game of Thursday / Friday are the NM Lobos
at San Jose State University. I wouldn't feel particularly good taking San Jose. Neither 2-2 team has played many close games but San Jose does have a 2 ATS win streak. We'll learn more about both teams this week.
