O5 WEEK10 ending Nov 5

AAC- #ucf  will maintain it's lead in the East and survive Hicks passing. in a 27-26 win over #smu
CUSA: Time to give some attention to the resurrected #uab squad. Look for #erderly to keep tossing TD passes  in a 28-19 win over #rice
MAC: In a battle for the West, Woodside's passing will lead #toledo over #niu 23 -16.
MWC: #joshallen  and the #wyoming Cowboys rustle the #csu rams 33-29.
Sunbelt: #Idaho is not leaving the #sunbelt and 1A football quiely and will battle #troy to the end but fall 24-23. Look #silvers to shine big tossing a few TDs for Troy.
Nov 3
Woodside threw for 361 yards but  #TerrySwanson  (29 CAR, 116 YDS, 3 TD) did the scoring in a 27-17 win over #niu.
Chunn's rushing (18 CAR, 113 YDS, 2 TD)  was the key in Troy's narrow 24 -21 win over #Idaho
Nov 5
#milton threw for 412 yards and 1 TD as #UCF survived #smu
Yes, #erderly was awesome tossing three TDs and so was #spencer brown rushing for 3 TDs in #uab 52-21 win over #rice.
#KellenOverstreet 's rushing TD with 4:21 remaining lifted Wyoming to a 16-13 win .
Five for five this week

O5 week 9 ending Oct 29, 2017

AAC: #tulane woke up too late in their loss to #usf and will lose 30-27 to #Memphis  who will focus on keeping #hilliard and the greenwave rushing attack in check.
CUSA: #Kiffin has the Owls O hootin and #wku  D is suspect. #fau 35 #wku 23
MAC: #emu keeps hanging inthere but not getting the W. #niu. particularly the D, has been playing solid football. #NIU 20 #emu 17
MWC: #Boise appears to have turned the corner, but Ags Qb jordanlove is tossing the ball well/ Utah St 22 Boise St 21
Sunbelt: The South Bama  Jags keep rolling. #dallasdavis tossed the ball a lot in the win over #ulm and will do it again in 23 -20 win over georgiast
Oct 27
It took  #niu awhile to wake up and #emu missed three FGS in regulation. NIU 26 EMU 20.. Both QB were solid. Roback(EMU) 22/44 262 1TD.  Childers(NIU) 23/40 2782TD.
Who can figure out South Bama? Manning to Way connection takes #georgiast to a 21-13 win over #USA.  1-1 in my picks so far.
Oct 29
#memphis led by #rileyferguson had too much O for Tulane in a 56-26 win
#fau fell behind in the middle of game but #singletary rushed for 244yards and 4TD in a 42-28 win over #wku.
#boise st got a nice game from QB Rypien in a 41-14 blowoutof Utah St
4-1 for the week.

O5 week 8 ending Oct 22, 2017

AAC: Two exciting QBs in the UCF (Milton) @ Navy  (Abey) matchup. #ucf 28 #navy 27
CUSA: Don't look now, but #northtexas is hot and will stay that way against #fau. #Fine will toss a few TDs for #ntu in a 31 23 win.
MAC: #niu isn't winning big, but will win another nailbiter. NIU 17 BGSU 9
MWC: #fresnost has used a decent D to go 3-0 in  conference play, but #sdst will bounce back form the loss to #boisest and win 20-16
Sunbelt: #hansen has been throwing well for #arkst . Can #Nunez spark the #ull offense? #arkst 23 #ull 19.
Oct 20
#hansen and #arkst rolled from the start and never looked back in a 47-3 win over #ull
Oct 22
A. Killins Jr. 15 CAR, 122 YDS, 2 TD & the #ucf knight were too much for #navy in a 31-21 win
#ntu D wasn't quite ready for prime time  #fau Jason Driskel  24-35, 357 YDS, 2 TD
Devin Singletary  17 CAR, 123 YDS, 3 TD led the way in the 69-31 romp.  #niu is looking like the real deal. Marcus Childers  21-33, 239 YDS, 3 TD in a  48-17 win over #bowlinggreen . #fresno D tamed the #aztecs 27-3.
3-2 record for the week.

O5 week 7 ending Oct 15, 2017

AAC- Abey, Navy QB, has their O in high gear, but Memphis is at home and their O ain't too bad. Memphis 50 Navy 49 .
CUSA:  It about time I recognize the #herd are playing  decent football. ODU struggled against Charlotte. Marshall gets a special teams TD and edges ODU 20-19.
MAC:  Akron's O has been solid in two conference wins over #BGSU and #ballst, but #wmu has been rolling after losing their opener to Sparty. #wmu 44 #akron 37 . Look for a big game from Jevon Franklin (WMU)
MWC: #sandiegost should take care of #boise, but this is usually a hard fought game. #Penny will rush for 150 and lead the Aztecs to 24 16 win over the Broncos.
Sunbelt: #ULM is 3-0 and conference play. C. Evans (82-129, 1037 YDS, 6 TD) will toss a few TDs in a  27-22 win over #georgiast
Oct 15:
#MAC game  was flooded out so #wmu/#akron kicks off at 1PM today. Both QBs put up solid numbers, but  Navy's five turnovers cost them in a 30-27 loss to Memphis. It took the #herd a few quarters to get into stomp mode  as Litton tossed 3 Td passes, and the D returned a fumble for aTD in a 35-3 win over ODU.
Two picks wrong: Manning tossed four TDs in the Georgia St win over ULM. #boisest slowed down Penny and the Aztecs in a 31-14 win, and now #fresnost sits atop the MWC West.
Oct 16
#jevonfranklin had a solid game for #wmu ,but it wasn't enough as #akron held onto an early 14 point lead for a 14-13 Sunday win.

O5 week6 ending Oct 8, 2017

AAC:  SMU(Dallas) vs Houston intrastate battle. I'm looking for Hicks and the Mustangs to pull out a close one over the Cougars.
CUSA:  #ODU hosts an improved #FAU squad in their forst 2017 conference game. Monarchs will may need a big game from their D to survive the improved Owls. ODU 17 FAU 16
MAC:  #emu put up a good fight against Kentucky and will stun #toledo for a road win. Look for an aerial show from Roback (EMU) and Woodside (Toledo)
MWC:  Stevens and Rams will  tame the Aggies , who are coming off a big win over BYU. Colorado St 24 Utah St 20
Sunbelt: #newmexicost is playing decent football in its final Sunbelt season and their Rogers and rose show will take then to a 27 26 win over Lamb and the Mountaineers.
Oct 8
If you bet against my picks, then you have a cash swell. I was spot on about Nick Stevens and the Rams who won 27-14, but blew the other four picks.
#SMU couldn't contain #Catalon. #ODU D played matador as #JasonDriskel scored four of #FAU eight rushing TDs.. #roback was picked off twice late by #toledo in a 20-15 #emu loss. #rogers had some aerial success, but enough to counter the #appst rushing attack led by #JalinMoore (19 CAR, 241 YDS, 2 TD)

O5 Football week 5 ending Oct 1

AAC: Going with #Memphis  35 UCF 27.  Ferguson' s arm and Henderson's legs should rule the day over #milton and the Knights. Both teams have nice win over Power 5 teams this season.
CUSA: #northtexas has stepped up their O with #Fine passing for over 1000 yards this season, but I'll go with #usm winning 30-27 behind Griggs' arm.
MAC: #WMU wins by 3 at home over #ballst in a low scoring game.
MWC: And a high scoring shootout in Hawaii: #CSU wins on the road behind Nick Stevens' arm.
Sunbelt: Only one conference matchup so I'll go with Evans , ULM QB, doing it all in a 30-10 win over #coastalcarolina.
Oct 1 review: (3-2)
I was wrong on #Memphis . Nice per carry avg for Adrian Killins Jr.  UCF(9 CAR, 115 YDS, 1 TD in a 40-13 win.
Yep , #MasonFine  UNT (24-40, 366 YDS, 2 TD) was impressive in a 43-28 win over #USM.
Finally made a correct pick, but #wmu  won by more than 3 over #ballst. #JonWassink  WMU
(14-20, 240 YDS, 3 TD)
Stevens, Dawkins,  and Gallup put up solid numbers in the #coloradost  51-21 win over over #hawaii and Dru Brown  HAW (31-47, 362 YDS, 2 TD)
Plenty of offensive  stars in the ULM  51-43 win over #CCU. Malcolm Williams  CCU (9 REC, 266 YDS, 2 TD)

O5 football Week 4 ending Sept 24

AAC- In a rare Sunday matchup #ecu  will  finally win and on the road. #minshew will toss two TD's passes  in  21-18 win over #uconn edsels.
CUSA- North Texas played Iowa tough for a half. Wilson had a decent  day rushing and should improve against UAB, who has  Brown, a solid freshman RB. NT 19  UAB 17
MAC: #emu led by QB Roback should survive a tough one against visiting #ohio with Quellete leading the rushing attack . EMU 24 Ohio 20
MWC:  It's hard to ignore the  Aztecs wins over Ariz St and Stanford. Chapman's arm and Penny's legs will lead #sdst  over #afa. SDST 31 Air Force 20
SunBelt: #ULM and #ULL are coming off rough starts against Power 5 opponents. #jordan davis  has tossed for nearly 700 yards and will lead the Cajuns to 26  17 win over ULM.
Sept 24 Review:
CUSA: A.J. Erdely  UAB(17-36, 321 YDS, 4 TD) had a huge day passing but Jeffery Wilson  #UNT
(26 CAR, 211 YDS, 1 TD)  but the Mean Green hung on. UNT 46 UAB 43
MAC: Brogan Roback  EMU (28-47, 271 YDS, 1 TD)  and A.J. Ouellette  OHIO (26 CAR, 145 YDS) had decent games , but Rourke's TD pass in OT  pushed Ohio to a 27-20 win.
MWC: #rashaaadperry 's late 53 yard TD run helped the Aztects survive the AFA upset bid. #sdst 28 #afa 24.
SunBelt: #ULM 56-50 OT win over #ull has me at .500 for the weekend pending the #ecu /#uconn game today. C. Evansn of ULM (16 CAR, 129 YDS, 5 TD) was a scoring machine.
Sept 25 review
More offense than I predicted in the #ecu 41-38 win over #uconn. Impressive numbers for Thomas Sirk  ECU (30-39, 426 YDS, 3 TD) which allowed them to survive the Huskies scoring the final 17 points of the game

Week Zero O5 1A matchups
