Last week, I went 40-11 overall. (I’m not going to count my weekly UNH pick, which I got right last week).

I got a lot of big games wrong last week (Ohio State, Fresno State, Michigan). I’m hoping to turn that around this weekend. We’ll also try something new. We’ll have the Amanda Silva picks after mine. Then we’ll see that Amanda can pick college football games better than me. Lovely.

Let’s get the ball rolling with a UNH victory over Albany (though I’m slightly concerned) 42-28. Oh defense.

Jason’s Picks:
Ohio State over Troy
East Carolina over North Carolina State
Penn State over Temple
Georgia Tech over Mississippi State
Florida Atlantic over Minnesota
Iowa over Pittsburgh
Purdue over Central Michigan (This will be a great game. Seriously)

Akron over Army
Missouri over Buffalo
Brigham Young over Wyoming
Northern Illinois over Indiana State
Tulane over Louisiana Monroe
Arizona over UCLA

Colorado State over Houston
Michigan State over Notre Dame

Miami (FL) over Texas A&M
Rutgers over Navy
Southern Mississippi over Marshall
Utah over Air Force
UAB over Alabama State
Idaho over Utah State
South Florida over Florida International
Texas over Rice
Texas Tech over Massachusetts
Wake Forest over Florida State

Middle Tennessee over Arkansas State
Louisiana Tech over SE Louisiana State
South Carolina over Wofford
New Mexico over Tulsa
Western Michigan over Tennessee Tech
Cincinnati over Miami (OH)
Georgia over Arizona State

Texas Christian over Southern Methodist
Fresno State over Toledo

Game of the Day: LSU @ Auburn. I can’t see this game being a shoot-out. No one can. These are two great defenses. It’s about the offense. Auburn has their own version of Terrelle Pryor (Ohio State) as a backup QB. His name is Kodi Burns. He can’t hit the side of a barn with a football if he was standing inside the barn. Look for him though to spot starter Chris Todd and pick up some big yards on the ground. I’ll take the Tigers of Auburn over the Tigers of Louisiana State by a final score of 14-12.
