And now, back by popular demand (well, some eGriz posters anyway), you get to pick who among Big Sky teams you think will pull off an upset … or "bet" against the team you hate the most. Where neither team was ranked, I made the one with the better record the “favorite,” without worrying about power rankings and what-not.

(Underdog on left, one choice allowed.)
 
Technically MSU is the underdog against PSU. Ya, I guess we're ranked 17th and they're 17th but they have the better record, have beaten two FBS teams, and they're at home. I believe Vegas has PSU as a seven point favorite.
 
My Big Sky Challenge picks were:
PSU
UC Davis
EWU
SUU
UND

But I've done pretty atrocious this season (like tied for 131st :lol: )

You make good points, ;)
but I always go with the FCS STATS poll. I could pick and choose, but stick with this approach just for consistency.
 
Weebs will beat the U of El Forko Grande. They have qb issues now with Studsrud sidelined. WSU will ground pound the Sundogs/Roughriders/Nodaks/Green Hawks. UND's d keeps it close for 3 qts. but wilts in the 4th do to exhaustion.
 
SUU and EWU should win easily, but the way this conference is shaking up I wouldn't be shocked to see one of these 2 teams have to come from behind at the end to pull off the victory. Cats and PSU is the biggest game on this list. I feel this game all comes down to the Cats defense. If they are suspect like they were against NAU, PSU wins. If they play like they did against Cal Poly, Cats come out on top.

The question is: Are people "rationally" picking PSU because of their record and home field advantage, or just because the want/hope to see MSU lose? :hater:

:lol: :lol: :lol:

If Eastern wins on Saturday, they will coast the next few weeks before heading to Missoula in November...

I know, didn't need to say it. Redundant really to say hate the cats on egriz. But, I really do. ALOT.
 
I see most people are still hatin' on MSU. :)
But it's also interesting that the number two vote getter is ISU over EWU. EWU haters :hater: or real choice?
 
MSU won't win this game. They are going into a buzzsaw. One of the worst road teams I have seen MSU field in a long while. Griz fans should thank their lucky stars that Fields seems to have a major man crush on Rash...
