[Dane96]

Stony Brook (1-0, 1-0) @ Buffalo (0-2)- Only because I am not sold on the QB play yet from SBU. This is a true pick'em for me.
Delaware (2-0) @ Navy (1-0)- Think this the best game of the week...and Delaware pulls out nailbiter.

Nonconference FCS
Colgate (0-2) @ New Hampshire (0-1)-UNH rolls, Colgate to0 one dimensional.
Bryant (2-0) @ Maine (2-0)- Bryant looking good but this is a game Maine should win.
St. Francis PA (0-1) @ James Madison (1-1) JMU rolls.
William & Mary (1-1) @ Lafayette (0-1) W&M showing more than expected so far this season.
Richmond (1-1) @ Gardner-Webb (1-1) Spiders bite the Dogs...hard.
Delaware State (0-1) @ Towson (2-0) Should be over rather quickly.

CAA games
Rhode Island (0-2, 0-1) @ Albany (1-1) Hopefully the pressure of opening the Stadium doesn't affect the kids...but UA should win this one by 10.

[melloware13]

Delaware (2-0) @ Navy (1-0)- Think this the best game of the week...and Delaware pulls out nailbiter.
I hope you're right on the winner, but it definitely will be a close/exciting one.

FBS games
Stony Brook (1-0, 1-0) @ Buffalo (0-2) 3:30 ESPN3 - SBU is too much of an unknown right now to pick over an FBS
Delaware (2-0) @ Navy (1-0) 3:30 CBSSN - It'll be close, but not close enough for the Hens.

Nonconference FCS
Colgate (0-2) @ New Hampshire (0-1) 12:00 - 'Gate is BAD.
Bryant (2-0) @ Maine (2-0) 3:30 - Bears big at home...
St. Francis PA (0-1) @ James Madison (1-1) 6:00 - Start wearing purple.
William & Mary (1-1) @ Lafayette (0-1) 6:00 - Like Maine, a good surprising start so far for the Tribe.
Richmond (1-1) @ Gardner-Webb (1-1) 6:00 - Won't be close.
Delaware State (0-1) @ Towson (2-0) 7:30 - CAA favorite right now.

CAA games
Rhode Island (0-2, 0-1) @ Albany (1-1) 7:00 - I remember when Maine opened Alfond Stadium in 1998. They came out firing and blew out UNH. Same situation here, enjoy the new digs, UA.

[Go Lehigh TU owl]

Stony Brook 27 Buffalo 24 : I don't often pick FCS over FBS but I really like SBU in this one...
Navy 42 Delaware 31: Navy is just a little too good....

UNH 48 Colgate 31: The Gate offense is solid but their defense seems to be really bad again...
Maine 35 Bryant 21 : Bryant keeps it respectable...
JMU 48 St. Francis 24: Dukes roll
W&M 42 Lafayette 21: Payback will hurt
Richmond 27 GW 10: Spiders get back on track...
Towson 52 Delaware State 17: The Tigers are monsters right now...

Albany 34 URI 17: Danes too good

[Tribal]

Lafayette allowed 300 yards rushing and W&M ran nearly that many against Hampton. Tribe has 4 RBs who are capable of 100+ yard games and I believe two will hit that mark in Easton.

W&M 34
Lafayette 13

[bonarae]

FBS games
Stony Brook (1-0, 1-0) @ Buffalo (0-2) - in the thread I created, I put this as a possible upset, but the Seawolves may need end-game tactics to keep this game close and hopefully pull another upset.
Delaware (2-0) @ Navy (1-0) - close call, but Delaware may break down by 4Q.

Nonconference FCS
Colgate (0-2) @ New Hampshire (0-1) - not even close
Bryant (2-0) @ Maine (2-0)
St. Francis PA (0-1) @ James Madison (1-1) - not even close
William & Mary (1-1) @ Lafayette (0-1) 6:00 - not even close, talent gap still there

Colgate (0-2) @ New Hampshire (0-1) 12:00 - The rout is on.

[danefan]

Very good chance the CAA could go undefeated OOC with two FBS wins this weekend.

As much as I hate SBU, I hate Buffalo even more. Go Seawolves!

[Bull Run]

Buffalo 38 - Stony Brook 17

But Ill be honest the more I look at the Seawolves the more I know Buffalo better not sleep on this game.. We have our own pickem at Bull Run feel free to chime in.

My gut feel is UB 34 SBU 20. The Bulls are a strong team at this level. Ohio St and Baylor were major mis matches.
