I don't usually pick, mainly because my team is completely unpickable, but I'll try it this week.

USA at Georgia Southern. This is surprisingly a 'trap game' in many respects. Last home game of the year for a winless team against a team that is inconsistent. And USA has never beaten Ga Southern, ever (or any team that plays that particular type of offense). They actually don't play terrible at home either. I expect Georgia Southern to possibly be leading at the half. I think USA does get the win, but in a much closer game than many would expect. USA by 10 as they pull away in the 4th. If USA loses on Saturday, expect Jones to announce his resignation at the end of the season on Monday.



NMSU at ULL. I think NMSU plays ULL tough but loses in the 2nd half, by 7 points.

Coastal at Idaho. Coastal has shown some life recently. If this game was in Conway, I'd be expecting them to celebrate their first conference win. Its not, so I'll take Idaho by 7 or so.

Texas State at Arkansas State. This is probably going to get ugly. Arkansas State cr*pped the bed last night playing an awful game against a mediocre team on the road. They'll be playing at home, still have something to play for, and are probably mad as heck. The real reason I think that Texas State is doomed in this game is their defense. They don't really appear to have much of one. Arkansas State big in this one.

ULM at Auburn - Auburn will win. The only hope we have is for Auburn's defense to come out flat (and boy did that not happen last week vs Georgia) so that ULM can at least try to match Auburn's offense. Auburn by a lot.

Rumor going around that BUTCH will replace JOEY as USA's next head coach. What say ye?

I'd rather hire Bielma than Butch Jones. But quite frankly, I'd rather hire a good FCS coach that is young and hungry, or just promote our DC.

Prefer Mario Cristibol over either of those guys. Would like to see an FCS coach or a P5 coordinator.

Oooh. Cristobal would be a good choice.

The defense is solid but with Mason at QB we will be lucky to get more than a handful of first downs and I'm sure we'll see him turn the ball over 2+ times. Being on the field for 40+ minutes will tire the defense out and this will likely be the big momentum changing moment for CCU's program. They'll win out this year and probably go on to go bowling next season.

One team trending upward, the other about to become as irrelevant as possible.

21-3 CCU wins.

If Richardson plays I'll still give it to Coastal but something more like 16-13.

An 11 year old Girl could play QB and lead an offense to more than 3 points against Coastal's defense.

Where is this 11 year old girl you speak of? There's a chance she's larger in stature and has a bigger arm than Mason Petrino.

Here's a stats for ya:

Coastal Carolina's defense is ranked 122nd in PPG giving up 38.4 points per contest.

Idaho has played three teams this year who's defense currently ranks 100th or worse (these teams give up about 35 ppg on average).

Idaho is averaging 21 ppg against those teams.

For perspective, 21 ppg would rank 112th in scoring offense in the nation and 11th in the Sun Belt.

So Idaho, with their supposed all-conference and NFL bound QB, has one of the bottom 20 scoring offenses against bottom 30 scoring defenses this year.

Imagine how god awful they will be with a QB that wouldn't crack the two-deep at most NAIA programs.

Also Idaho is favored by 9 so get your bets in quick if you want to get rich.
