Wk. 8; Lines in the Sand
10 C-USA teams are schedule this weekend, ALL with intra-conference match-ups. With Marshall and LaTech leading their respective divisions, it will be interesting how these games shake out and affect the conference championship game. Of important to this thread: can Nasty Bunch maintain his two pick lead over the rest of the pickin' pack?

All games are on Saturday, October 18. Here's the ESPN listing of games:
http://scores.espn.go.com/ncf/scoreboard...ekNumber=8

UTSA @ LaTech - 12:00 pm, ET: Fox Sports Network
Western Kentucky @ FAU - 12:00 pm, ET: Sinclair Network
UAB @ Middle Tennessee - 3:30 pm, ET; Fox College Sports
Marshall @ FIU - 6:00 pm, ET: American Sports Network
Southern Miss @ North Texas - 7:00 pm, ET: American Sports Network

Charlotte has a bye-week, as do Old Dominion, UTEP, and Rice.

RE: Wk. 8; Lines in the Sand
HEre are my picks for this week's match-ups. Some tough calls here, in my opinion:

UTSA @ LaTech: I've become a believer in LaTech, and UTSA is struggling
Western Kentucky @ FAU - A toss up. I'm not sure who the real Hilltoppers are, but I know FAU is tough at home.
UAB @ Middle Tennesse - This may be a whale of a game
Marshall @ FIU - FIU has a solid defense, but Marshall has too many weapons.
Southern Miss @ North Texas - Toss up game, but will take the home team.

La tech has too many weapons. They're very good when the spark plugs are cleaned.
Fau will win this game too. I saw the Fau-fiu game and it was obvious who was better.
Mtsu will take this one but it will come down to the last play.
Somiss will upset in, in, by the way where is no. tex?

UTSA @ LaTech - Loss to NWST was an anomaly, right?
Western Kentucky @ FAU - WKU has an offense. Will they stop FAU often enough?
UAB @ Middle Tennessee - I'll be a homer. Winner will be whoever wins turnover battle, maybe whoever has the ball last.
Marshall @ FIU - No one will beat Marshall, thought they could beat themselves.
Southern Miss @ North Texas - Deflated Mean Green loses their closest game all year.

Western Kentucky @ FAU owl crush in a hootout
UAB @ Middle Tennesse best running game since dickerson and james keeps uab offense off field
Marshall @ FIU - if this were a boxing match the refs would stop it midway through the second quarter
Southern Miss @ North Texas - tony mitchell ftw.

UTSA @ LaTech: Sokol vs a 3rd string QB making his first start?
Western Kentucky @ FAU - Taking a flyer on WKU on the road
UAB @ Middle Tennesse - ***GAME OF THE WEEK*** Both teams are in my top 4 but I have to give a slight edge to MT at home
Marshall @ FIU - FIU is dead last in total offense. They will not be able to keep up and eventually their tough D will bend
Southern Miss @ North Texas - Only because UNT is at home.
