UMass vs Rhode Island Game Preview

Why Rhode Island Will Win

The UMass defense is a problem.

It’s been struggling all season long, and the offense has been the biggest issue to overcome, but the D has been destroyed over the last two weeks allowing 121 points.

But that was against Florida State and Liberty. Rhode Island doesn’t have that type of talent, but the passing game is able to bomb away big and the defense is usually able to take care of the rest.

Former Maryland QB Kasim Hill isn’t all that accurate and the O has struggled lately, but the attack is hitting close to 14 yards per pass and should hit just enough deep shots to open things up.

However …

Why UMass Will Win

Rhode Island can’t score.

UMass might have a power outage, but it’s playing a slew of decent FBS teams. The Rams scored seven points in back-to-back games against Towson and Villanova, and they couldn’t keep up in a 21-point loss to Maine.

For all of the problems UMass is having, the running gnat hasn’t been bad over the last few weeks – it ran for 210 yards on Florida State – and Rhode Island doesn’t have the type of defense that can get into the backfield on a regular basis.

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

At the very least, UMass will hold on to the ball enough to keep this from getting out of hand. The problem will be the big plays.

Rhode Island will give up over 200 yards on the ground, but it’ll make up for it with a few big scoring plays and lightning strikes.

– All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

BYU vs Idaho State Game Preview

Why Idaho State Will Win

The Bengals aren’t bad at staying in games early on.

They wear down late – the second half scoring isn’t there – but they need to control the clock just a little bit early on, try to tilt the field with their great punting game, and the need to take lots and lots of chances down the field.

The BYU secondary give up plenty of yards and big plays, which goes hand-in-hand with being bad on third downs, and …

– College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

Why BYU Will Win

Idaho State doesn’t score in the second half.

BYU will use this as a light scrimmage, but it’s going to keep thing simple with the running game going right away.

The Cougars ran for 238 yards against Washington State and rumbled for close to 400 yards in the win over Virginia. They’re going to run early on the bad Idaho State defense, they’ll get up fast, and the only drama will be whether or not the Cougar D allows any plays on its side of the field in the fourth quarter.

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

It’s the last home game of the year, and BYU will have some fun before going off to deal with Georgia Southern before closing out at USC.

The College Football Playoff committee won’t care about the style points in this, but they’ll be there.

Louisiana Tech vs UAB Game Preview

Why Louisiana Tech Will Win

So what’s working?

It’s been a rough year with four straight losses and little to no offensive punch, but the team is doing one thing really, really well.

It can force takeaways.

It’s not a plus for the program at this point to just come close in losses – especially to Old Dominion – but it’s been forcing turnovers in bunches. It didn’t generate any against ODU, but it came up with eight in the previous three games with was why the Bulldogs were able to stay around with NC State, UTSA, and UTEP.

UAB isn’t air tight with the ball. It’s not awful when it comes to turnovers, but it gave it away four times against Tulane and four more against Florida Atlantic.

However …

– College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

Why UAB Will Win

Yeah, the Louisiana Tech offense. There’s no running game.

The passing attack isn’t awful – it should be able to hit 250 yards without a problem – but that’s not enough. There’s no ground attack for UAB to deal with – the Bulldogs haven’t hit 100 yards in four of the last five games.

The UAB defense has been inconsistent overall, but it’s been solid in Conference USA play. Amazing over the last three games, it stuffed everything Southern Miss tried to do, didn’t allow much against Florida Atlantic, and wasn’t bad against Rice, but …

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

Just when it seemed like UAB was ready to make a big move, it dropped a home game to a Rice team it should’ve rolled through.

UAB couldn’t convert on its third down tries, Rice could, and it was a 30-24 loss. The defense will bounce back, the offense will hit on enough deep plays to take over, and the rested team will get through this and deal with the huge finishing kick of at Marshall, at UTSA, UTEP.

– All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

SMU vs Memphis Game Preview

Why SMU Will Win

The Mustangs finally lost, but it took a kick-six by Houston in the final moments to do it.

The SMU passing game is still great – it’s the best in the American Athletic Conference – the offense is still putting up huge numbers, and it all starts with an offensive line that’s going a great job at keeping defenses out of the backfield.

Memphis doesn’t have enough of a pass rush to worry about, but more than that, the lack of pressure isn’t forcing mistakes. The Tigers don’t take the ball away.

– College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

Why Memphis Will Win

Memphis has the offense to keep up.

It might have stalled against UCF, but it’s got enough balance – at least at times – to try the running game first. Great at moving the chains, the Tigers lead the league in third down conversions with a quick style that should be just right to fit into the flow of the game.

Overall, the SMU defense hasn’t been all that bad, but it just got bombed on by Houston, and it’s good for giving up at least 230 yards in this.

Again, the Tigers are going to have the O to make this fun, but …

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

Memphis doesn’t do enough to control the clock and the turnovers will be just enough to blink. The O has turned it over 12 times it the last five games, and it’s going to give it away twice in this and by at least -2 in turnover margin.

SMU won’t make this easy on itself on the road, but it’ll be yet another close game. Unlike the Houston game, it’ll be a close win.

– All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Temple vs East Carolina Game Preview

Why Temple Will Win

The Owls can’t get into a shootout, but it can make this interesting by forcing mistakes.

Temple’s offense has been hit-or-miss, but it needs to take advantage of every opportunity. East Carolina has turnover problems – it’s got a major fumbling issue – giving the ball away three times in each of the last three games and multiple times in six of the eight games.

The Temple pass defense has been a plus. That’s partly because teams are spending so much time running the ball on the porous front, but East Carolina would prefer to get throwing and keep things going through the air – it’s not as consistent on the ground.

– College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

Why East Carolina Will Win

No, Temple really isn’t getting anything out of the offense.

It hasn’t been able to get to 300 yards in any of the last three games, and it’s 0-5 this year when it fails to get there – and 3-0 when it does.

East Carolina doesn’t exactly have a brick wall of a defense, but it’s far, far better than it’s been in past years.

Yeah, it’ll probably give up over 300 yards, but there’s not any Owl running game to worry about, and there should be a whole lot of big things from the offense to make up for any defensive concerns.

Yeah, Temple’s pass defense hasn’t been bad, but try throwing on this group and it’ll work.

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

East Carolina will give the ball away just enough to keep Temple in the game, but it won’t be enough to blow the key home win.

A bowl game is still in the mix, but with road games at Memphis and Navy up next and Cincinnati to close, lose, and a bowl likely isn’t happening. The Pirates will get this with good offensive balance to pull away early.

– All of the CFN Fearless Predictions

Cincinnati vs Tulsa Game Preview

Why Tulsa Will Win

Does Tulsa have the formula to pull this off?

Cincinnati has been more than fine – the sign of a good team is being able to win games when you don’t have the top-shelf effort and performance – but something isn’t going quite right if you’re struggling to get by Navy and Tulane.

Tulsa has hardly been perfect, and this isn’t nearly the same type of team as the 2020 version that pushed the Bearcats so hard in the AAC Championship, but the ground game has been good at times over the last month, the downfield passing game is dangerous, and there’s no pressure.

The heat is all on the other side. Cincinnati can’t just win this game, it has to annihilate the Golden Hurricane to get more respect in the College Football Playoff world. The team is going to press.

– College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

Why Cincinnati Will Win

No, we’re not supposed to do Aaron Rodgers bits right now, but …

R-E-L-A-X.

No, Cincinnati wasn’t good enough against Tulsa, and it sure as shoot should’ve been better against Navy, but everything is more than fine.

The running game needs to get nasty again after two weeks off, but Tulsa is decent against the run – it’s okay. The methodical Bearcat passing attack can balance things out.

The Bearcat secondary has been a rock all year – only Indiana and Notre Dame have been able to hit 200 yards – and Tulsa passing game isn’t consistent enough and it’s not efficient.

There will be takeaways to be had.

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

It seems like there are two ways this could go.

Either Cincinnati is starting to play with the weight of the College Football Playoff world on its shoulders, and it’s not doing what it’s supposed to, or it’s about to come out and put up one of its better performances of the season.

Tulsa isn’t bad enough to let this get out of control, but it will make just enough mistakes to let the Bearcats take over.

It’ll be another one of those games.

The final score will be fine, and there won’t be any real danger at home, but it won’t be quite as pretty as it might need to be. Give a decent Tulsa team a little credit for that.

Notre Dame vs Navy Game Preview

Why Navy Will Win

Navy might not be as strong or as effective as it should be – the running game isn’t a dominant force that takes over games – but it’s still Navy.

This team still controls the clock, it still runs the option, and it’s getting just good enough to push good teams like Cincinnati and SMU even when it’s not running for 300 yards.

Notre Dame’s defense has been terrific all season long, but it just got hit by North Carolina for 224 yards. As much as Navy wants to slow things down, it’s going to be even more deliberate in this – it’ll have the ball for 36 minutes. However …

– College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

Why Notre Dame Will Win

Notre Dame’s defense is having problems … against teams that can throw.

North Carolina might have run well last week, but that’s a totally different animal than what Navy brings – the Midshipmen don’t have Sam Howell at quarterback.

You threw for as many yards last week as Navy did in its win over Tulsa.

Yeah, it’s Navy, and yeah, it might have a knuckleball of an offense, but the Irish defensive front isn’t going to allow anything from the fullbacks up the gut and there won’t be any issues for this linebacking corps to hold up on the outside.

And that’s the option – do both of those things, and everything will be okay.

Along with a defense that should be able to handle what’s coming …

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

Notre Dame has an offense, too.

There’s no need to take any chances here. Run the ball, keep running it, and give Navy a taste of its own medicine by controlling the clock enough on the ground to matter.

Safe, easy throws. Don’t be afraid to punt and win the field position battle, and don’t give the Navy offense anything easy to work with. The Irish can do that – it only has one turnover in the last four games.

Don’t expect sensational – there might not be another run like Kyren Williams came up with last week against the Tar Heels – but methodical will work.

Tulane vs UCF Game Preview

Why Tulane Will Win

Is Michael Pratt back?

The starting quarterback practiced this week after being out for the Cincinnati game with a concussion, but he’s still questionable.

The running game was able to pick up the slack a little bit last week, and the defense was able to keep the team in the game until late. Now it all has to work together against a UCF team that’s starting to bounce back a bit.

The Knights don’t have the sure-thing explosion to end this with a huge start. The downfield passing game isn’t as strong, the consistency isn’t there, and …

– College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

Why UCF Will Win

Tulane turns the ball over a whole lot.

It gave it up four times against Cincinnati, it has four games this season with four or more giveaways, and UCF might just need a few to be comfortable.

No, Mikey Keene might not be Dillon Gabriel quite yet, but he’s getting better and better with more work. He was sharp against Temple with five touchdown passes, his most accurate day of the season, and he got help from a defense that did its part with a second straight terrific performance after holding Memphis to seven points.

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

It’s just not Tulane’s year.

UCF doesn’t have to be spectacular in this.

It can rely on an improving defense that didn’t allow 300 yards in either of the last two games, the decent ground game should be more than serviceable, and there will be chances to come up with enough takeaways to make this comfortable.

Houston vs USF Game Preview

Why Houston Will Win

The passing game heated up when it had to last week in the thrilling win over SMU.

The rushing attack will get 150ish yards or so, but Clayton Tune is coming off a brilliant 412-yard, four touchdown day with a whole lot of big plays all while taking the offense to another level.

USF has a decent pass defense, but it’s hardly a rock. It allowed 220 yards or more in every game except the win over Temple, and it’s about to allow at least that many in this – along with a whole lot of yards on the ground.

Houston would rather work through the air, but the Bull D gave up 251 yards in the loss to East Carolina last week and 269 to Tulsa a few weeks earlier. But …

– College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

Why USF Will Win

USF has been better.

The running game ripped through Temple two weeks go, and it followed it up with close to 200 yards against East Carolina. Keeping the chains moving is a bit of an issue, but the offensive line hasn’t been all that bad overall and it should keep the Cougars out of the backfield.

On the flip side, for all of the good things Houston has done, it doesn’t allow a whole lot of sacks, the rushing attack has to be forced a bit, and …

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

Here comes the Houston pass rush.

Yeah, the USF offensive front has been great in pass protection, but there’s about to be a problem against a Houston D line that’s great at stopping offenses from getting going.

Houston is among the best teams in the country at third down stops, USF is among the worst at converting on third downs.

Army vs Air Force Game Preview

Why Army Will Win

The Army rushing offense is still the Army rushing offense.

It was great to start, it struggled – by Army’s standards – against Ball State with just over 200 yards, and he was stuffed by the great Wisconsin D. 416 yards on the ground against Wake Forest later, it’s back to doing what it does.

Air Force is amazing at controlling the clock. It’s second in the nation in time of possession – Army is No. 1, and by a whopping two-plus minutes a game.

Air Force is amazing against the run. It’s allowing just under 100 yards per game – Army is better, allowing 93 yards per game.

On the flip side …

– College Football Expert Picks, CFN Week 10

Why Air Force Will Win

Air Force has a better all-around defense.

Yeah, Army might be great defensively, but it only stopped a slew of mediocre running games – Wisconsin was able to run for close to 200 yards.

Air Force has stuffed a few strong ground games – it kept San Diego State to 157 – and it already dealt with an option attack holding Navy to just 36 yards in a dominant 23-3 win.

Of course, neither side is all that great at throwing the ball, but Air Force does it a wee bit more. For those few times either side goes up top, the Air Force secondary is stronger.

– NFL Expert Picks, CFN Week 9

What’s Going To Happen

It’s going to be a low scoring game – as always.

These two always place close, tight battles that come down to a few mistakes and a few key stops. These two do the exact same thing – with slightly different styles – but the main different will be the takeaways.

Air Force has forced 11 turnovers, Army has forced six – with just one in the last three games – and at home, Air Force will get that one extra stop.
