Upset Guesses, Top Ten (Oct 20)

[IdaGriz01]

At least we have a couple games where ranked teams are matched against each other. That should make it interesting, although their poll spots aren't very close. I would not care to be South Dakota at North Dakota State ... I imagine there will be some major butt-chewing at NDSU during practice this week.

Picked App St because I'll be rooting for them the rest of the way once the regular season ends if the Griz are done and they get in.

Hate James Madison and their jerk off coach so I'll pick Richmond vs. James Madison.

Surprised more people aren't picking Towson to take down ODU. Towson's 3-3 record is somewhat deceiving: The RPI calculator rates their Strength of Schedule as #67 (all D-I), while ODU compiled that 5-1 against the #155th SOS. Sagarin gives Towson are very slight edge at home.

FWIW, The Sports Network is also picking App State to beat Wofford ... by 6.

(This may have been posted, but if so, I missed it).

Unlike anyone on here, TSN thinks Maine, playing at home, can (barely) beat New Hampshire, by 2 points. This is apparently a big rivalry game between the two.

Nobody picked Maine over New Hampshire. It's early (about 5 min left in Q1), but Maine scored first and is currently dominating the stats.

That was my pick. :thumb:

First upset of the day (not predicted here, unfortunately): Missouri State over #11 illinois State, 24-17.

App State a FG behind at the half.

Looks like Richmond is up 22-10 over JMU halfway through the 3rd quarter.
