The Blog's picks for Week #2
Bowling Green over Kent State. BG gets the MAC East over early.

Miami (Ohio) even against Kentucky. Kentucky lost to Western Kentucky in their opener.
Ball State over Army.
UMass over Maine.
New Hampshire wins against CMU. The Chippewas suffered two devastating injuries last week.
Baylor over Buffalo. The Bulls and UMass have the league's killer schedules.
Missouri beats Toledo.
James Madison over Akron. See above.
Ohio over North Texas. The Mean Green is not Louisville.
Western Michigan over Nichols State. The Colonials lost to Oregon 66-3 in Week #1.
