      West Chester at Shepherd (-14.5): DUBs looked disorganized against East Stroud, but keep it relatively close against Sheep (who will win)
      Clarion at Edinboro (-7.5): Only the Clarion-ettes could blow a 20+ point lead against a fellow PSAC doormat
      Kutztown (-13.5) at Lock Haven: Baldies make it close, but KUBs hang on to win in spite of iffy offense
      Gannon (-7.5) at Mercyhurst: Lake Show beat the Clarion-ettes last week only to get LIT-UP by TEAM LIT-UP-AF
      Millersville at Shippensburg: Reluctantly taking Ship, though I wouldn't be shocked if I were wrong on this one
      California at Slippery Rock (-7.5): I don't trust Spocks to take next step against a "big boy" quality opponent like the Slippys
      Bloomsburg at East Stroudsburg (-17.5): When you lost to the Baldies, you've pretty much mailed it in
      IUP (-13.5) at Seton Hill: At least the Red Chickens have a bye week... presuming no special teams miscues or idiotic penalties

      Charleston (-7.5) at Fairmont State: Charleston might be the team to beat in the region right now
      Pittsburg State at Northwest Missouri: 4-3 Northworst Misery having an atrocious season (by Northworst Misery standards)... Gussies pile on to make it worse

      Moravian at Juniata: Juniata's only win came against Hartwick ... this is the Landmark Conference equivalent of the Lake Show beating the Clarion-ettes
      Mount Union (-35.5) at Wilmington: Mount Union has allowed 16 points all season ... Wilmington either wins by a lot or loses like a lot

      BONUS

      1) Gannon at Mercyhurst, total combined points, over or under 48.5: Over (only because Hurst's defense is putrid against teams other than the Clarion-ettes)
      2) This PSAC road team will score the most points in Week 8: Gannon
      3) This PSAC team will lose by the largest margin in Week 8: Cal
      Cal U (Pa.) Class of 2014

        "Millersville at Shippensburg: Reluctantly taking Ship, though I wouldn't be shocked if I were wrong on this one."

        Well, it certainly wouldn't shock me, and I'm a Shippensburg fan. With Evan Falco coming on Saturday, we've now had four quarterbacks get a significant amount of snaps for the second season in a row — not exactly the formula for winning football.

          Wow...this was up fast!

          My picks in bold.



          Week 8


          West Chester at Shepherd (-14.5) - The Swifties will easily win Ewe Fest 2023.

          Clarion at Edinboro (-7.5) - The Willies can screw up this week and still win.

          Kutztown (-13.5) at Lock Haven - Despite the improvements..they aren't beating the Fighting Amish

          Gannon (-7.5) at Mercyhurst - LIT AF going for the Hail Mary Catholic School Cup and the Erie County Mistake By The Lake Cup at the same time. They will demand the Dixon Trophy if they do.

          Millersville at Shippensburg - The Amish Pirates ship gets outsailed......

          California at Slippery Rock (-7.5) - If there was a God, an asteroid would hit Butler County during this game....there will be a lot of points scored by both teams as defense will be a suggestion.

          Bloomsburg at East Stroudsburg (-17.5) - Dennyball will cover easily...even if they win by 50...it wasn't on purpose.

          IUP (-13.5) at Seton Hill - IUP going through the motions like a Republican married couple in the sack.

          Charleston (-7.5) at Fairmont State - This won't even be close.

          Pittsburg State at Northwest Missouri - Northwest Misery's demise is even more pronounced than IUP's. Their fans don't have to sandbag anymore.

          Moravian at Juniata - I almost applied to Juniata until we drove through Huntington on the way home from visiting IUP.

          Mount Union (-35.5) at Wilmington - A D2 elite program in D3 clothing.


          BONUS

          1) Gannon at Mercyhurst, total combined points, over or under 48.5 OVER

          2) This PSAC road team will score the most points in Week 8: Mon Valley U

          3) This PSAC team will lose by the largest margin in Week 8: Bloomsburg

            West Chester at Shepherd (-14.5): I see WCU as a .500 ballclub, nothing more.
            Clarion at Edinboro (-7.5): Blowing a 21-point lead doesn't do much for a program.
            Kutztown (-13.5) at Lock Haven: Honestly, I see this coming down to an end-game.
            Gannon (-7.5) at Mercyhurst: Both schools are in Erie, I'm told.
            Millersville at Shippensburg: JC and Jeff Tomasetti make life even more miserable for their old boss.
            California at Slippery Rock (-7.5): Still the best attack in the PSAC.
            Bloomsburg at East Stroudsburg (-17.5): Probably a good line.
            IUP (-13.5) at Seton Hill: Even in an off-year, a mismatch.
            Charleston (-7.5) at Fairmont State: One team scored 52 Saturday. The other gave up 49.
            Pittsburg State at Northwest Missouri
            Moravian at Juniata
            Mount Union (-35.5) at Wilmington

            BONUS

              West Chester at Shepherd (-14.5) (Shep wins, WCU keeps it close)

              Clarion at Edinboro (-7.5)

              Kutztown (-13.5) at Lock Haven (KU wins, no way they win by that much though)

              Gannon (-7.5) at Mercyhurst

              Millersville at Shippensburg

              California at Slippery Rock (-7.5) (Rock could barely cover)

              Bloomsburg at East Stroudsburg (-17.5) (ESU wins, but Bloom covers)

              IUP (-13.5) at Seton Hill

              Charleston (-7.5) at Fairmont State

              Pittsburg State at Northwest Missouri

                Week 8


                West Chester at Shepherd (-14.5): Rams seem like a very different team than in September.

                Clarion at Edinboro (-7.5): Would love to watch in person but I'll be stuck at Rock homecoming. John's Wildwood > Bob's Sub all day, every day.

                Kutztown (-13.5) at Lock Haven: Might take LH on the points if their QB1 was still playing.

                Gannon (-7.5) at Mercyhurst: All the money poured into these programs and they're not even the top priority men's program at their schools.

                Millersville at Shippensburg: Morgan over Mac.

                California at Slippery Rock (-7.5): Edinboro showed Cal can be held down when they start slow. Rock has a much, much better offense to make Cal pay for that slow start.

                Bloomsburg at East Stroudsburg (-17.5): I have to admit I'm pretty impressed with Jimmy T.

                IUP (-13.5) at Seton Hill: Oh boy.

                Charleston (-7.5) at Fairmont State: Charleston in cruise control.

                Pittsburg State at Northwest Missouri: Bearcats prove they can still hang but the Gorillas are back baby!

                Moravian at Juniata: The president at Juniata has two degrees from Edinboro. Just saying.

                Mount Union (-35.5) at Wilmington: Are they back?


                BONUS

                1) Gannon at Mercyhurst, total combined points, over or under 48.5: OVER

                2) This PSAC road team will score the most points in Week 8: IUP

                3) This PSAC team will lose by the largest margin in Week 8: Seton Hill

                  West Chester at Shepherd (-14.5) - One group of (walk-on) Rams are entering pack-it-in mode. The other is not.

                  Clarion at Edinboro (-7.5) - Golden Eagles turn in to pumpkins in second half on weekly basis.

                  Kutztown (-13.5) at Lock Haven - Expect a TD bonanza after last week's FG festival. Bears cover in second half.

                  Gannon (-7.5) at Mercyhurst - #LIT-AF drops the boom. Fo rizzle.

                  Millersville at Shippensburg - Famous message board poster Ship69 is next in line at QB.

                  California at Slippery Rock (-7.5) - The Viet Mon has lost 5 straight in series. That streak isn't going to end this weekend.

                  Bloomsburg at East Stroudsburg (-17.5) - This has a 55-14 vibe.

                  IUP (-13.5) at Seton Hill - Top WR in country will look to dazzle crowd of 71 people in Greensburg. However, Tort owns the Griffins. IUP gets a late cover after finding a way to keep game close for 3 quarters.

                  Charleston (-7.5) at Fairmont State - This was supposed to be -17.5 (typo). Call it a freebie.

                  Pittsburg State at Northwest Missouri

                  Moravian at Juniata - Tough place to play.

                  Mount Union (-35.5) at Wilmington - They have to be bored by now in D3.


                  BONUS

                  1) Gannon at Mercyhurst, total combined points, over or under 48.5 - Gannon may cover this by itself.

                  2) This PSAC road team will score the most points in Week 8: #LIT-AF

                  3) This PSAC team will lose by the largest margin in Week 8: Lake Show

                    "Millersville at Shippensburg - Famous message board poster Ship69 is next in line at QB."

                    I'm saving my outstanding athleticism for basketball in case it's needed. At close to 5-11 I'm actually taller than a couple of guys on the team this season, although I admit at 76 my three-point shooting is not what it used to be.

                      Week 8 Picks:

                      West Chester at Shepherd (-14.5) Chester is a good team but not a great team, they can keep up with Shep a little, but in the end Shep is better on both sides of the ball.

                      Clarion at Edinboro (-7.5) Leads aren't the only thing we blow!

                      Kutztown (-13.5) at Lock Haven K-Town saves all their touchdowns from last week and ends with a final score of 63-3. Haven cries into their beers that night, such is life.

                      Gannon (-7.5) at Mercyhurst Gannon is lowkey nice with it and is a very slept on team this year. Hurst should beg for Mercy.

                      Millersville at Shippensburg Ville has fallen off in the latter half of the season after their impressive start. Ships defense is kinda good, so this is gonna be a close one. The Shippensburg crowd is gonna need to be loud to get them over the top.

                      California at Slippery Rock (-7.5) All Hail Plankton. All Hail Plankton. All Hail Plankton.

                      Bloomsburg at East Stroudsburg (-17.5) Bloom will not cover. ESU keeps it rollin.

                      IUP (-13.5) at Seton Hill This season has probably hurt IUPs widdle feelings but don't worry, their last 4 games are absolute softballs down the center of the plate so they'll still go 8-3 in a supposed off year.


                      Charleston (-7.5) at Fairmont State

                      Pittsburg State at Northwest Missouri

                      Moravian at Juniata

                      Mount Union (-35.5) at Wilmington Mount Union should be D2 at this point

                      On a different note, do these count towards score? I don't personally enjoy these extra picks so I just do what everyone else does.


                      BONUS

                      1) Gannon at Mercyhurst, total combined points,overor under 48.5
                      2) This PSAC road team will score the most points in Week 8: IUP
                      3) This PSAC team will lose by the largest margin in Week 8:Seton Hill

                        Week 8


                        West Chester at Shepherd (-14.5) - Very tough call. On the one hand, I think WCU is capable of keeping this close. On the other hand, they've been mistake-prone and Shepherd can capitalize.

                        Clarion at Edinboro (-7.5) - Clarion begins their limp to the finish after missing out on their last best chance for a PSAC win.

                        Kutztown (-13.5) at Lock Haven - Kutztown must be itching to right the ship after a very close call.

                        Gannon (-7.5) at Mercyhurst - Gannon should be able to light up the scoreboard against the worst defense in the PSAC.

                        Millersville at Shippensburg - Ville has hit the skids, and Ship has been playing teams tough. Should be a good game, with both teams desperately needing a win.

                        California at Slippery Rock (-7.5) - The big one. Cal should be motivated, which is dangerous. Rock will probably win, but I'll take the points.

                        Bloomsburg at East Stroudsburg (-17.5) - ESU has mostly done a good job of pulling away from teams it should beat.

                        IUP (-13.5) at Seton Hill - I can just imagine the scenes on this board if IUP loses this game. Make it happen, Stewies! Still not gonna pick ya, though.

                        Charleston (-7.5) at Fairmont State - Charleston looks to be a class above the rest of the MEC, will be a problem come playoff time.

                        Pittsburg State at Northwest Missouri - Pitt should win this game with ease, but NWMSU hasn't lost 4 regular season games since 2001! Would love to see it happen, hope this pick is wrong.

                        Moravian at Juniata - if not for Susquehanna, Moravian would be one of the favorites in the new-look Landmark Football Conference.

                        Mount Union (-35.5) at Wilmington - Mount Union has reached their ceiling. Wake me up when they join D2.


                        BONUS

                        1) Gannon at Mercyhurst, total combined points, over or under 48.5 - Even if this was just Gannon's points, I'd pick OVER

                        2) This PSAC road team will score the most points in Week 8: Gannon

                        3) This PSAC team will lose by the largest margin in Week 8: Bloomsburg

                            West Chester at Shepherd (-14.5)- Shepherd wins again. Defense is playing better, offense is keeping it mistake free. Too big of a line to cover, but they should hang on for the homecoming win. Looks like there will once again be some weather with the Rain as of now.

                            Clarion at Edinboro (-7.5)

                            Kutztown (-13.5) at Lock Haven- Golden Bears marching to the state game.

                            Gannon (-7.5) at Mercyhurst

                            Millersville at Shippensburg- Should be a pretty good game. I think Millersville gets back in the W column and has been the more consistent team this year.

                            California at Slippery Rock (-7.5)- Feel like Rock is a notch above this year for the rest of the PSAC.

                            Bloomsburg at East Stroudsburg (-17.5)

                            IUP (-13.5) at Seton Hill

                            Charleston (-7.5) at Fairmont State

                            Pittsburg State at Northwest Missouri

                            Moravian at Juniata

                            Mount Union (-35.5) at Wilmington
