McNeese at Lamar Mcneese +1
SHSU at UCA SHSU +1
ACU at Northern Colorado ACU +1

I have no idea who northern colorado is. Most of my guesses were pretty contradictory to yours. I'm hoping for a McNeese loss and a UCA win obviously but I can't pick that way because honestly I don't think it will go that way.

Remember we have until Wednesday midnight central time to change our picks. Mine look pretty set. Although that nicholls game is looking like it might change. xlolx

If you don't know who Northern Colorado is then you must not follow much FCS football outside of the SLC. They are in the Big Sky Conference. Used to have a very strong program until some issues hit the program. SHSU played them several times in the past, including playoffs.

(They are the school that made major sports headlines (2006) when their backup punter attacked their starting punter with a knife years stabbing him in his kicking leg. Backup punter got 7 years in prison)

Northern Colorado is 5-5 this year. Biggest win for them was over Portland State two weeks ago. In case you don't know who Portland State is, they, too, are in the Big Sky Conference, 8-2 overall, 2-0 vs FBS...knocking off hapless North Texas State 66-7 and a resurgent MIke Leach coached Wazzu. They were ranked 9th in the AGS poll last week.

Well I do follow most but there are over 120 teams in several conferences. I don't keep up with everyone exactly. Usually just the ones that traditionally have strong programs or conferences. Much like most fans on here probably.

10 TDs with 6 INTs. Ouch.

I've known Zach since he was knee high...he ABSOLUTELY HATES that ratio.

Gametime weather for the UCA/SHSU game:

Sunset 5:02 p.m.
Gametime: 6:00 p.m.

High for Saturday: 49 degrees.
Temperature at gametime: 35 degrees.
Rain: 10% chance.

When that sun sets it will get COLD.
Predicted attendance: 10,000 - 3000 deer hunters - 1000 students- 1000 people who don't like to get cold = 5000 actual attendees. Pitiful.

Dress warmly. Big coat. Don't expect much tailgating. Our fans are past that for the year. Pitiful.

That's only marginally better than Daniel Sams....and he's perhaps the most erratic passer we've had....When he's on, he's on...but,man, when he's off??? Holy **** he's off!

I thought Zach was a pinpoint passing kinda guy??

Yep, but that was just to get the Kats feeling all warm and fuzzy. That also followed a long drive into the SHSU redzone so that is worth some kinda gold star somewhere, xlolx

Gold for sure, 6 gold flags on that drive or that was the halftime one? Still funny to me there weren't many more of those golden flags the rest of the way. Sams didn't win that game, that defense did.

That's 10 rushing TDs not passing TDs

He has thrown for 15TDs and 6 INTs (and that 6th INT was a hail Mary into the end zone tipped up into the air, ending the first half of the HBU game.

Better than 20+ INTs Attaway seemed to throw every year.

Now you are going to pull the whine card on officiating? I will admit, It has been a while since I saw an OL jump that many times in a row but they earned every one of those golden flags.


It's over, Kats have their hands full in Conway this weekend (and the Pokes may too in Beaumont)

He's talking specifically about the PI and Defensive Holding calls that were bogus. But you're right moving on. Win and we are in, that's all we need.

It was just during that one drive and it wasn't both ways see the push off on the td reception. They may have threw one flag the rest of the way so I am not whining at all because that wasn't the reason we lost the game.
