Man, a few weeks ago I was tied for first. Talk about a nosedive ...

6. CMU over Ball State. What a win by CMU last week! Rawls will take over this game.
5. Army over Kent State. This is Army's third MAC game of the year. I swear somebody in the athletic department there wants Army in the MAC.
4. Northern Illinois over that team down south. Even with the loss to CMU I'll still call NIU to figure it out and win the west.
3. Bowling Green over Western Michigan. WMU is a young talented team that has improved as the season has gone on but they're not quite there yet. We'll score fast and control the game.
2. UMass over Eastern Michigan. I still can't believe EMU wiped out UB but the win streak will end at 1.
1. Ohio over Akron. I'll call for the upset here. Had we not started with a 14-0 lead in the first few minutes at OU I just don't know how the game would have turned out and I don't think Akron will score the way we did. And OU will have some injured players back.
MarkL has spoken.
You may all now return to your daily lives.
