I don't like making my picks on Monday! I like to wait until Friday! Oh well, here it goes...

BGSU @ Buffalo - Last year was clearly a fluke for the Bulls. The Falcons go on the road and win convincingly.

Miami @ Temple - Miami sucks...Temple in a rout.

EMU @ NIU - Huskies win at home against the annual disappointment that is the Eagles..especially with their short turn around.

WMU @ Michigan State - WMU is no CMU. Sparty handles the Broncos easily.

Kent State @ Akron - I cannot believe the amount of suck that is going to be at InfoCision stadium. Coin flip goes to Akron at home.

Bowling Green at Buffalo
BG - BG comes out, hits hard, and plays their overall best game of the season. The Bulls get whipped so bad they deeply regret their comeback last season.

Miami (OH) at Temple
Temple - Miami has a bit of momentum now, but it won't help too much. Temple is too good in the MAC right now.

Eastern Michigan at Northern Illinois
NIU - EMU sure looked good last weekend ... against Arkansas' practice squad. NIU runs wild.

Western Michigan at Michigan State
WMU - the past two years, WMU has beat a Big 10 team in November on the brink of bowl eligibility (07 over Iowa, 08 over Illinois). MSU is the better team, but I just want to pick WMU to win this one. MSU losing would be their 6th loss of the season, all but guaranteeing MSU is not going bowling (just like Iowa 07 and Illinois 08) as they still play Penn State.

Kent State at Akron
KSU - Akron isn't exactly great, KSU isn't exactly great, but KSU is by far better right now.

BGSU @ buffalo- I think the falcons will win this but only if we play focused unlike the CMU game. This game SHOULD be won big but I believe it will be a close game.

miami(oh) @ Temple- The owls will win this game big at home.

eastern michigan @ NIU- Huskies win huge

WMU @ Michigan State- the spartans will win this game but it may possibly be a close game.

Kent State @ Akron- Kent will win this game. The zips are horrible and the flashes actually have something good going this season.

Mark, I know you're not the only one downgrading the Flashes, but I think they're about 11 SECONDS away from being undefeated in the MAC... and we know who beat em... They're playing well, and they're VERY young... we'd better have a GREAT recruiting year... as several MAC teams seem young this year.

I stunk it out last week, blech! Time to rebound ...

Tuesday, November 3
Bowling Green at Buffalo : I'm going with my heart on this one, sensing that Clawson will find a way to win this one on the road.

Thursday, November 5
Miami (OH) at Temple: Temple (Pierce) will simply wear out the Redskins (sic).
Eastern Michigan at Northern Illinois: The Hurons (sic) are in a death spiral.

Saturday, November 7
Western Michigan at Michigan State: The Broncos find no solace from the Spartans.
Kent State at Akron: The Flashes have it all clicking and are in the race. No time to let up.

Northern by 20
MSU by 17
Akron by 4

I think some are forgetting that this is still the MAC and as unpredictable as anything in life! ;)

7:00 PM ET Bowling Green at Buffalo - Bowling Green - Buffalo just doesn't have the talent, and the LUCK, that they did a year ago. BG rides their apparent road-field advantage to victory.

Thursday, November 5
7:30 PM ET Miami (OH) at Temple - Temple - Listen up folks, Temple is for real. If they hadn't lost to Villanova they'd probably be getting top 25 votes right now.

7:30 PM ET Eastern Michigan at Northern Illinois - Northern Illinois - Picking against EMU is like shooting fish in a barrel. Point. Next.

Saturday, November 7
12:00 PM ET Western Michigan at Michigan State - Michigan State - Regrettably, WMU just isn't as good as their in-state brethren from Mount Pleasant. MSU rolls.

3:30 PM ET Kent State at Akron - Kent State - I simply cannot believe that some of you are taking Akron in this game. Kent by 4 touchdowns.

Tuesday, November 3
7:00 PM ET Bowling Green at Buffalo BG will win but not before making all of us swear profusely! I won't get to watch this one, I'll be at the Cavs-Wizards game tuesday night!

Thursday, November 5
7:30 PM ET Miami (OH) at Temple- Who knew Miami could actually score? Temple is a bit better than Toledo. Temple should shellack Miami!
7:30 PM ET Eastern Michigan at Northern Illinois Will EMU win a game this season? Not sure about that, but not this week for sure!

Saturday, November 7
12:00 PM ET Western Michigan at Michigan State- WMU is so disappointing this season. They will stay close early, but fall apart in the 2nd half.
3:30 PM ET Kent State at Akron Kent is better than some of us have given them credit for. They should win handily. Akron is that bad!
