7 p.m. — Iowa State (1-1) at Kent State (1-1) (TV: ESPN360.com)
Kent State had such a chance to win this game. But this chance came before the news that Eugene Jarvis, possibly the best tailback in the conference, will miss the season after lacerating his only kidney. The Kent State coach will be too busy setting fire to the NCAA to game plan an upset over a Big XII team. Iowa State 21, Kent State 16
7 p.m. — Miami (0-2) at Western Michigan (0-2) (TV: Nope)
Finally, a conference game. This is where the fun begins. Miami is one of two FBS teams in the country yet to score a single point. The other is Nevada, and they've only had one game to attempt this lofty goal. Western, on the other hand, has a quarterback who understands that throwing the football to players wearing the same color is usually a wise decision. WMU 34, Miami 3 (Actual points? I know!)
7 p.m. — Cal Poly (1-0) at Ohio (1-1) (TV: Nope)
All right then, here are some fun facts about California Polytechnic State University's football program: Famous alumni include John Madden and ... well, actually, that's it. And he's retired, so he won't be of much help. WHAP! Ohio 34, Cal Poly 14
7 p.m. — Bowling Green (1-1) at Marshall (1-1) (TV: Nope)
Wait, BG's playing Marshall? Ex-MAC perennial champion Marshall? Did I slip into a time vortex and re-appear in 2003? Bowling Green 24, Marshall 17
7:30 p.m. — Buffalo at Central Florida (TV: Nope)
Okay, yep, I am definitely in the year 2003. I must warn everybody about Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez. There may be trouble in paradise! Although their new movie looks pretty good. UCF 24, Buffalo 20
