Last week and this week 24th of Sept

I know, I know I missed last week updating everyone. But I think I am still getting over what happened to Eastern Washington in losing to Montana. Wow. Eastern Washington is looking really really bad. And I would be remiss if I did not mention Delaware beating Delaware St. Those guys never play, and Delaware looks justified in not scheduling those guys much.

This week conference play gets underway big time. The CAA has Old Dominion versus Delaware in what would usually be the match up of the week, but James Madison is playing William and Mary too. And of course Richmond is in first and they are taking on New Hampshire. Worth watching.

The Southern Conference has a big game too with Chatanooga taking on App. St. Wofford, who has looked good too, ought to beat Samford. Georgia Southern also ought to beat Western Carolina.

The Big Sky continues to entertain. Montana ought to take down Sacramento State, but they are out in Sacramento. Montana State takes on a very much in trouble Eastern Washington.

The MEAC has already had a big game when Hampton was unable to take down Behune-Cookman in a close game. South Carolina State is now the clear cut favorite. They play Delaware State today.

The Missouri Valley is also very competitive. Youngstown State takes on Indiana State. Both teams are 2-1. Also of interest is Northern Iowa hosting Western Illinois. And in what could be another big upset, North Dakota State takes on Minnesota. North Dakota state has beaten Minnesota at least twice in the last 6 years or so. Don't count them out.

There are other interesting games, like the OVC. The question there is how good is Jacksonville State? Last year the big game was SE Missouri State, who is not good this year. Tennessee State looks good, and if they knock of SE Missouri they may be the big contender to the OVC crown.

Keep your eyes on the TV guys. It should be a great week.
