Quick , before there 's a covid cancellation. Dec 23 rd games Ga Southern 27. La Tech 23 because Werts will gets 75 yards rushing from the QB slot for GA So. Memphis 39 FAU 26 because White will throw for over 400 yards for Memphis. I'll get to more picks later this week..
Dec 24: 2-0 yesterday: Both winning QBs were stellar. Werts(GASO) ran for 3 tds and passed for one , and White(Memphis) tossed three TD passes.
Picks for Xmas Eve and Xmas day Houston 30 Hawaii 26, Cougars slow down Hawaii QB Cordeiro (1947 YDS, 11 TD) enough to get the win. Marshall has limped into December and won't slow down Jared Patterson. Buffalo 26 Marshall 20
Dec 26: I was wrong on Houston: their QB Tune threw three costly picks, their D didn't slow down Cordeiro who threw 3 TD passes, and their special teams allowed the Rainbows to run a kick back for a TD . HAW 28 Hou 14. I was correct on Buffalo , but it was Marks not Paterson who ran all over the Herd in a 17-10 win. Paterson had not recovered from being injured during the Ball St game.
Note on coaching changes Harsin leave Boise St for Auburn after under-performing against SJST in the MWC final, and amid rumors of a conference move to the AAC. It's a bit messy in Blueturf-land.
ULM hires Terry Bowden. After a brief moment in the sun with Auburn in the mid 1990, he was mediocre with Akron (MAC) from 2012-2018. I guess they're buying the family name.
Now, to today's games.
ULL will keep the Roadrunners in check. ULL 31 UTSA 14. WKU won't have an answer for CORNELIOUS BROWN IV, who has 7 rushing TDs and has thrown for 2046 yards and 14 TDs. GA St 30 WKU 19
Dec 27: ULL struggled to contain Frank Harris, the UTSA QB, in the second half, but behind the strong running of Elijah Mitchell(19 CAR, 127 YDS, 1 TD) they held on for a 31-24 win over UTSA.
Cornelious Brown IV GAST (16-30, 232 YDS, 3 TD) was great in a 39-21win over WKU.
5-1 in this slate of games.
Dec 30:Big time props to Coastal Carolina's Jamey Chadwell , the 2020 AP Coach of the Year. Nice award for the Sunbelt.
