MAC teams start season with 4 wins in 5 games
The 2008 college football season began on Thursday night with 5 games involving MAC football teams. Buffalo topped UTEP 42-17, defending MAC Champion Central Michigan knocked off Eastern Illinois 31-12, Eastern Michigan crushed Indiana State 52-0 and Ball State easily rolled to a 48-10 win over Northeastern 14 for the four wins for the MAC. Miami was the lone team to lose last night as they fell at home to SEC member Vanderbilt 34-13.
In Nick’s MAC football picks for Week #1 of the 2008 season, Nick picked Buffalo and Miami, both favorites in their home games, to cover the spread, thus a 1-1 record ATS. Since the three games against FCS teams have no lines, Nick went 4-1 overall and 1-1 ATS in the first five games of the weekend.
The halfway point of Week #1 of the 2008 MAC football season comes tonight after the Temple game is completed. Temple is looking strong @ Army right now leading 28-7 late in the 3rd Quarter. For reference, Nick picked Temple, a 7.5 point favorite to beat Army by 5.
