New Mexico: #76 New Mexico beats #98 Texas San Antonio

 

Las Vegas: #24 Houston beats #55 San Diego State.  

 

Cure: #58 Central Florida beats #78 Arkansas State

Armed Forces: without a QB, #42 Navy is upset by #75 Louisiana Tech

 

Dollar General: #92 Ohio loses to #79 Troy

Hawaii: #108 Middle Tennessee travels halfway around the world to beat #120 Hawaii. The entire point of the Hawai’i Bowl is to indoctrinate the American public on the proper spelling of the Aloha State.

Quick Lane: #80 Boston College loses to #69 Maryland

Independence: #46 NC State beats #54 Vanderbilt

Holiday: #35 Minnesota loses to #13 Washington State

Cactus: #77 Baylor loses to #34 Boise State. The Bears don’t want to be there, but the Broncos do.

 

My secret: I base all my picks on the Saragin power ratings.
The only exception this year is Navy.
