In fact, there are no WAC games this week, so the entire week's rather throwaway. San Jose State might be able to win a game in a Pac 10 team's backyard, because that team is Stanford. Boise State tries to start a new winning streak against Wyoming, while Nevada hosts FCS team Nicholls State and New Mexico State waits for UTEP to show up to their doorstep, which won't take long since it's less than an hour drive.

I have to disagree with the sentiment that Alabama is better top-to-bottom than Arkansas. This is probably Nutt's most talented overall team since he has been there. Dick wasn't quite as bad as his numbers indicated against Troy, but all he has to be is average. Overall though, these two teams are about as even as could be. I can't wait to watch it. I expect to be throwing things at my tv and cursing Nick Saban by 7:25.

For whatever reason, I'm really intrigued by that Michigan State-Pittsburgh game.
Eastern Michigan will upset NIU, putting at least one Washtenaw County team in the win column.

I agree on State-Pitt. I expect it to be one of the better matchups of the day. That said, while State and Pitt are playing, my tv will be focused on the Chippewas and Purdue. I don't imagine I'll get to see DAN (not David) LeFevour too many more times on tv this year.
