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.)
