[OL FU]

Not shy about picking the upsets this weekxeyebrowx

[WrenFGun]

Looks like W&M over UNH is the trendy pick this week, despite the fact that it's in Durham. Hard to fault people, though.

[danefan]

How about Northeastern over UMass.

[FargoBison]

After reading his NDSU prediction I kind of wonder if he knew NDSU is playing at home and not at WIU.

Fair, but at least Northeastern is at home...sort of.

After reading his NDSU prediction I kind of wonder if he knew NDSU is playing at home and not at WIU.

Agreed. I expect a tight game, but the Bison have found ways to win at home and haven't dropped a game there in almost three years (22 October 2005, UC-Davis), so using the fact that the Bison have struggled on the road this year to predict they lose at home doesn't make any sense. Of course, they didn't bother to get the game time right, either.

How about Northeastern over UMass.

Anything can happen in that neighborhood.

is this even real? I notice the link starts with an ip number as opposed to a www address.

No, I made it up.

Of course its real. Its linked straight from the TSN site.

But seriously, if you go in from the www.sportsnetwork.com (http://www.sportsnetwork.com) and follow the links to teh FCS section, the link for FCS Previews: Week 7 is in the box on the right-hand side.

And I just changed the link and it still works:

Agreed. I hope he realizes it is in Fargo. It is tough to tell, because that home field is quite siginificant.

[UNI Pike]

Interesting how both Ill St and UNI have the 12th ranked rushing attack in the nation, though Ill St averages 216 yards and UNI averages 206 yards per game.

Proofreading is overrated.

UCA over SHSU isn't an uupset. :D

[th0m]

Did I miss something, or doesn't it say anywhere who wrote the preview?

It doesn't. I think its just TSN staff.

[appfan2008]

well ill take the asu score they threw out there... so i am happy

[OL FU]

UCA over SHSU isn't an uupset. :D

Not saying it was but T-Martin over EIU would have to be considered one, at least before the gamexsmiley_wix

[smallcollegefbfan]

It doesn't. I think its just TSN staff.

It was likely their intern. I think Dave had them take his name off it so people would stop confusing his work and bash him.

[IaaScribe]

Yeah, it was a little odd for them to talk about how NDSU struggles on the road as a reason for the Bison losing at home to WIU.

[PhoenixPhan06]

THE Elon vs THE Citadel game will start to separate things a bit in the SoCon. Right now I feel that Elon is solidifying its spot at the top of the standings as a legit contender for the SoCon crown while The Citadel is at a cross roads in their season.

Elon will win this one and quiet all the nay sayers while The Citadel will be left to pick up the pieces. I see Elon putting recent history aside and showing that they are one of the three top tier teams in the SoCon (ASU and Wofford being the others) and The Citadel falling back to the middle of the standings.

I was surprised by the upset pick in the TSN predictions but I am certainly counting on a close game. I think The Citadel will hang in there for 3 quarters but then lose it in the fourth when Riddle and Hudgins simply take over the game.
