Lemme touch on a couple of the highlights:



Eastern Washington @ Washington

Overall Record: 0-1
Streak: Lose 1
Last Meeting: 2011. Washington 30, Eastern Washington 27



Washington loses some very key pieces so I think the Eagles get the win in this one



Montana @ Wyoming

Overall Record: 0-13
Streak: Lose 13
Last Meeting: 1997. Wyoming 28, Montana 13




The Griz have lost all 13 meetings with the Cowboys, and with deference to UAH and the boys in Griz Nation...I think it goes to 14 this year



Montana State @ Arkansas State

Overall Record: 3-0
Streak: Win 3
Last Meeting: 1984. Montana State 31, Arkansas State 14



Im assuming you mean Montana State here, and Id give the edge to the Wolves in this one



Portland State @ Oregon State

Overall Record: 0-3
Streak: Lose 3
Last Meeting: 2009. Oregon State 34, Portland State 7




After the upset loss to EWU last year, the Beavers are going to want to send a clear message, and I think they win this one by about 6 TDs

Nicholls over WMU was. That was NSU's first DI win in about 2 years.

SUU over USA was somewhat of an upset, too, since Suutah was expected to be lousy last year.

They may be gone now, but GSU over Florida was certainly an FCS over FBS upset in 2013.

count them out of an at-large bid, but they could still make the playoffs by winning their conference. Not that I really consider them in the running for the "natty" in any case.

UNI about did 3 in 2011.

UNI had Wisconsin and Iowa on the schedule and had Savannah State back out. Options were entertained from BYU, Boise, and about 3 or 4 MAC teams - one of which was a discussed H/H or 2/1.


When Morgan State backed out this year I know there was speculation of a possible third FBS game rather than a D2...but a FCS was found.
