  • Week 1 Football Predictions

    Twenty four of you have indicated that you want to particpate in the weekly football predictions this year. Others are more than welcome to join in even if you didn't let me know of your interest earlier. MilwaukeeJacksAlum has offered a t-shirt to each weeks winner. There will be 8 games each week plus a tiebreaker question for the t-shirt. If there is still a tie after the tiebreaker, the person who submitted their predictions first will be the winner of the t-shirt. All Missouri Valley Football games will be listed plus additional games of interest to bring the total each week to 8.

    The football season starts 2 weeks from today and I am going to be out of town most of next week, so I am posting the first week games a little early. They are listed below. Send me a personal message with your predictions and then I will post all predictions prior to game time. I would like to have all predictions this first time by noon, Tuesday, August 26. That will provide me a little extra time this first week to get everything set up.

    Here are the first week games to pick: (just the winner, scores not necessary)

    SDSU at Iowa St
    Indiana St at E. Mich
    Youngstown St at Ohio State
    Western Illinois at Arkansas
    Illinois State at Marshall
    Northern Iowa at BYU
    Austin Peay at NDSU
    Cal Poly at SDSU (San Diego State)


    The tie breaker question. Predict the number of FCS teams that will win games against FBS teams this first week. If my sources are correct, there are 32 games all on the road at FBS schools. For your reference, here is the list. (You don't need to predict individual games, just the number of FCS wins.)


    Northeastern at Ball State
    Eastern Illinois at Central Michigan
    Indiana State at Eastern Michigan
    Hofstra at Connecticut
    Jacksonville State at Georgia Tech
    Eastern Kentucky at Cincinnati
    Charleston Southern at Miami (FL)
    South Dakota State at Iowa State
    Tennessee-Martin at South Florida
    Youngstown State at Ohio State
    Coastal Carolina at Penn State
    Maine at Iowa
    Georgia Southern at Georgia
    Western Illinois at Arkansas
    Southern Utah at Air Force
    Villanova at West Virginia
    Towson at Navy
    Delaware at Maryland
    Illinois State at Marshall
    Appalachian State at LSU
    McNeese State at North Carolina
    Northern Iowa at Brigham Young
    South Carolina State at UCF
    James Madison at Duke
    Chattanooga at Oklahoma
    Southern University at Houston
    Eastern Washington at Texas Tech

                              I think so. But I also think it's fun to see other people's picks.
