Old School Meets New School
What an upset that the SMU Mustangs were able to pull off last week! SMU was a 23.5-point underdog to the Houston Cougars, but ended up dominating from start to finish thanks to a surprisingly stalwart defensive effort. That was the first big win of the Chad Morris era and now SMU is hoping to seize the momentum from the win going forward. In Week 9 College Football, the Mustangs will travel east to take on another team on the rise, the Tulane Green Wave....
The Toledo Rockets are a late BYU field goal away from being 7-0 this season. Jason Candle is showing that he was the right choice to replace Matt Campbell as head coach and the Rockets have been one of the top offenses in the country. Western Michigan may be getting all the love in the MAC West, but Toledo is running right with them, dominating conference opponents. In College Football Week 9 action, Toledo will host the Ohio Bobcats, a team that needs a win to stay in first place in the MAC Ea...
Two of the best teams in the Sun Belt square off on Thursday night when the Appalachian State Mountaineers take on the Georgia Southern Eagles. While Appalachian State is undefeated in conference, Georgia Southern has just one loss, on a crazy comeback by Arkansas State, but still largely controls its own destiny. Whoever wins this College Football Week 9 matchup will come one step closer to winning the conference, while the loser will have some ground to make up....
Neither history nor recent trends favor the Eastern Michigan Eagles as they take on the Miami (OH) Redhawks in Week 9 action on Saturday afternoon. The Eagles have dropped two of three games while Miami has won back-to-back contests. Meanwhile, the Redhawks have also beaten Eastern Michigan in each of their last eight meetings. You have to go back more than two decades to find the last time the Eagles topped the Red Hawks....
The Georgia State Panthers are winless on the road and journey to Mobile to take on the South Alabama Jaguars. Having won two of their last three games, Georgia State has looked better of late, but heading into Week 9, the Panthers are still winless on the road. South Alabama hasn’t been that great at home, but should be much more comfortable facing the Panthers at Ladd-Pebbles Stadium than in the Georgia Dome where South Alabama fell to Georgia State by a pair of touchdowns last season....
The Air Force Falcons will try and regain their early season magic in their Week 9 Friday night showcase against the Fresno State Bulldogs. The Falcons started the season strong, with a big win over Navy and a 4-0 record, but the team’s gone cold, dropping three in a row. Fresno State is the perfect opponent to help Air Force stop the bleeding, the Bulldogs have dropped six in a row....
The Akron Zips journey to western New York State to take on the Buffalo Bulls in Week 9 for the 16th time in the history of these programs. Akron has fared particularly well in this matchup. The Zips took their tenth game in head-to-head action over Bulls last year at home, but Buffalo captured the win the last time these two teams faced off in New York. They’ll get a chance to get the win at home, but the trends favor an Akron team that’s won three of their last four games opposed to...
The Wyoming Cowboys head into their Week 8 showdown in the Mountain West crossover matchup with the Nevada Wolf Pack off a bye week. The Cowboys have had plenty of time to game plan and are also riding high having won two in a row and three of their last four games. Nevada, by comparison, is struggling. They just feel to San Jose State last weeks, scoring only 10-points as the offense has dried up. Nevada’s scored 17 or fewer in three of their last four games, all losses....
The Central Florida Knights held a 10-point lead over Temple at the half in their last game, well on their way to a 2-0 start in conference play. The Knights, however, couldn’t hold on as the offense came to a screeching halt and the defense couldn’t stop the bleeding before the Owls got the win in the final seconds. UCF is now looking to bounce back in a big way as they journey north to take on the Connecticut Huskies for just the third time ever in pivotal Week 8 meeting for both teams....
Wow, we are already to Week 8 of college football and now is when the Big 10 conference games start heating up. Wisconsin pays a visit to Iowa City to face the Hawkeyes in a huge game. The No. 2 ranked Ohio State Buckeyes face the Penn State Nittany Lions and the Indiana Hoosiers try to rebound after two straight losses, by taking on Northwestern in Evanston. No. 4 ranked Michigan is back in action to face Illinois and Maryland hosts the sputtering Spartans....
The Eastern Michigan Eagles are not dominating anybody, but they’re quietly having a nice season, getting just enough on offense and a strong defensive performance to pull out victories. They’ve had just enough against the likes of Ohio, but do they have just enough for an upset over an unbeaten Western Michigan Broncos’ squad in Week 8? It’s a tall order for the Eagles’ one-dimensional offense to square of against what could be the best mid major in college football....
The North Carolina Tar Heels have gone through a roller coaster of a season, and it’s only Week 8. The team is in a good spot right now as it is nationally ranked after a win over Miami and sits atop the ACC Coastal Standings....
The surprising Nebraska Cornhuskers were not expected to be among the heavyweights in the Big Ten this season, but more than midway through the season they are still undefeated and atop the West conference standings....
The gauntlet continues for the Wisconsin Badgers. While they aren’t facing a fourth straight top-10 team, Wisconsin nevertheless is hitting the road to face off against a talented Iowa Hawkeyes squad in Week 8 of the regular season....
The Michigan Wolverines have been one of the most impressive teams in the country all season, and that’s expected to continue this week. They will host the Illinois Fighting Illini in Week 8 of the regular season and should have little trouble dispatching their conference brethren....
The unfathomable slide of the Michigan State Spartans continued last week, when they dropped their fourth straight game to Northwestern. Can the former top-10 team finally turn it around in Week 8 of the regular season against the Maryland Terrapins?...
The Ohio State Buckeyes survived their first scare of the season last week but continue on their road to a College Football Playoff berth. The regular season finale against Michigan figures to be the big hurdle, but Ohio State can’t slip up before then....
The North Carolina State Wolfpack came a missed field goal away from knocking off unbeaten Clemson last time out, eventually succumbing in overtime, 24-17. It must re-focus right away, with another conference matchup against a national championship contender in Week 8 when North Carolina State hits the road to take on the Louisville Cardinals....
Off a big win, snapping their four game losing streak and improving to 2-5, the San Jose State Spartans will hope the momentum helps them at least stay in the game during their Week 8 matchup against a highly-favored San Diego State Aztecs team with one of the nation’s best rushers and a defense stacked to dominate the Spartans. The Aztecs are at home with a spread roughly in line with their last win over San Jose State....
This is a relatively new rivalry considering the South Alabama Jaguars football team is still in its infancy. The Battle of the Belt is split two games apiece since the Jaguars’ first head-to-head meeting against the Troy Trojans back in 2012. Troy took the first two games of this series, but South Alabama has won the last two. Can Troy reverse its fortunes and avoid a third straight upset at the hands of the Jaguars here in Week 8?...
Winless in conference. Neither the Fresno State Bulldogs or the Utah State Aggies thought that’s where they would be at this point of the season, but both are sitting at 0-3 in Mountain West play thus far and thoughts of winning conference titles have been replaced by hopes of just finishing with a winning record. In this College Football Week 8 affair, something has to give. One of these teams will finally have a conference win to its name while the other will still be searching....
The Appalachian State Mountaineers are cruising through Sun Belt play at this point. For the second straight week the Mountaineers defeated a conference opponent by double-digits and submitted an absolutely smothering defensive effort. In College Football Week 8 action, the Mountaineers will host the Idaho Vandals, a team that surprisingly holds a winning record more than halfway through the season and just needs two more wins to become bowl eligible....
Bob Davie and the New Mexico Lobos have their ground game churning. For the second straight week, they ran wild on a defense that was supposed to be one of the top run defenses in the country and are looking unstoppable on the ground. In College Football Week 8, the Lobos will face a much easier defensive test than their last two games against Air Force and Boise State when they play host to the Louisiana Monroe Warhawks....
The Western Kentucky Hilltoppers have had a pretty wild start to their season. Western Kentucky has been on the wrong side and the right side of a one-point game and could just as easily be either 3-4 or 6-1 right now instead of 4-3. Their one-point win on the road against Middle Tennessee State last week kept them in contention for a division title, but their opponent in College Football Week 8 is the Old Dominion Monarchs, who are currently sitting at 2-0 in conference....
It’s been a great start to the season for the Navy Midshipmen. Although they lost to the Air Force and likely won’t be able to win the Commander-in-Chief’s Trophy, Navy is sitting pretty at 3-0 in the conference and in the driver’s seat for the West Division after stunning Houston two weeks ago. If the Midshipmen want to stay in control of their own destiny though, they will have to defeat the Memphis Tigers when they come to town in Week 8 College Football....
