Hard to believe that Nebraska could be beaten by an FCS team.

xcoolx Yep, saw this a few weeks ago and for obvious reasons did not pass it along. Nebraska will not lose and I do not think NDSU will win either. UNI may pull it off and SELU has a good chance of bushwacking the Green Wave.

Is Towson really a threat this coming year?

The loss of West is a huge step backward. I'm kind of expecting the same thing as Tim Flanders at SHSU.

I'm not sure how UNI v. Iowa makes the list but not UNI v. Hawaii

I'm not sure that's actually an upset...

Hawaii gave up over 200 yards per game on the ground last season and over 38ppg

What do you expect the Hawaii point spread to be Clenz?

I'd bet UNI will be between +2.5 and +5.5 depending how they show against Iowa.
A win v Iowa and I'd bet UNI is favored but i cant think of many times an fcs has been the favorite, regardless who they're playing.

Because i know the fcs, I hace looked at what UNI and Hawaii are bringing back, and a slight bit of homerism I would set the early line at UNI -9.5. That isn't how it works though

Don't count out Fordham vs. Army, either.

I said this over on CS.com but I would go with Liberty-UNC, mostly due to the fact that UNC is a power conference team. App State would be an upset because they are an FBS team, but I really think that would not be as eye opening an upset as UNC would be

A lot of folks on here thought that about Kansas State.

If they beat Iowa, I will bet whatever line they put out for tha Hawaii matchup. Huge letdown spot, goin to tha big island, no chance they get up for that game in that spot after that travel and after beating big brother.
