MWC Predictions Recap, 2010, Week Eight

I said: Utah 34, CSU 13
Actual: Utah 59, CSU 6
Note: CSU is having another one of those years.  They stink.  Again.  Utah's offense is good.  Their defense may or may not be good: still unknown.  I believe all judgements about Utah must wait until TCU, and their entire season will be judged on that game since they will not have played anybody else all season.  The Iowa State game looked a lot better this weekend as the Cyclones were busy beating Texas at Texas...

I said: TCU 34, Air Force 13
Actual: TCU 38, Air Force 7
Note: Air Force struggled running the football without Tew.  They were going to struggle anyway, but without him their offense completely sputtered.  They will need to figure out how to get creative on offense quickly with Utah coming to Colorado Springs this weekend.  In the offseason, I predicted Air Force to win that game and finish second in the MWC.  Even if they manage to win this game, they won't finish 2nd thanks to their loss at SDSU.  TCU continues to dominate.

I said: SDSU 38, New Mexico 13
Actual: SDSU 30, New Mexico 20
Note: SDSU remains alive in the MWC race, but they haven't played Utah or TCU yet.  New Mexico is eliminated from bowl eligibility in the 7th game of the season for the 2nd consecutive season.  That is just bad.  They were competitive with Rocky Long: why are they not even competitive with Mike Locksley?

  1. an easy week to predict the winners, but I'm impressed with the decent score predictions. I guess I'll keep reading your blog after all...
