Welcome back, college sports fans, to episode 739 which is all about our first triple set of the week with MACNation kicking off Week 11 in football while both Men’s and Women’s basketball is actively in Week 2. Speaking of basketball, the GCR had 22 predictions for the Men, going 16-6 (727), now 22-11 (667) on the season, and 20 for the Women, going 16-4 (800), now 43-15 (741) on the season. Overall, 32-10 (762) yesterday and 65-26 (714) on the season, which is much higher than we expected this early. We have 49 Men’s and 24 Women’s predictions today.
…..
But first, we have three football games. Kicking us off, at 7:00 (all times Eastern) is W Michigan (6-3/66) at Akron (1-8/195). To put those ranking in perspective, WMI is 17th among the Group of 6 while Akron is 6th to last. Neither Vegas nor the GCR think the Zips will have any significant home field advantage (although it is the MAC mid-week in November – stranger things have happened). The oddsmakers put WMI-14.0 and the GCR agrees to win and cover. Watch this game on CBS Sports.
…..
Our second game, also at 7:00, features two struggling programs with Kent St (3-6/150) trying to avoid missing a bowl (they must win out to be eligible) at Bowling Green (2-7/156). These teams are very closely matched, and we expect a close game. Vegas sees BG-5.5 spoiling KTST’s bowl dreams, but the GCR disagrees and sees a road win for the Golden Flashes. This game is on ESPNU.
…..
Our football nightcap, at 8:00 on ESPN2 has Ohio (7-2/50), 11th in the G6, at Miami OH (5-4/101), who is looking to become bowl eligible with a home win tonight. Vegas sees a close game but are betting the RedHawks have to wait another week as they have OHIO-1.5. The GCR agrees to win and cover. You can catch this game on ESPN2.

The Women counter with 51 games including 4 kicking off at 11:00. However, 17 of those games had ND1 opponents leaving just 34 D1 games. The final game of the night, at 10:30 features Charleston (2-0/346) and JuJu Watkins’ Southern Cal (2-0/32). She’s the real deal and worth the watch. Here’s the full slate.

That’s it for today. Tune in tomorrow for two posts. One will be a unique combined Men’s Top 365 and Women’s Top 363. Normally, we would split those Evaluations, but it is so early in the season that they are a bit wonky. Each day, teams are being significantly shuffled because of the tiny degrees of freedom (that essentially means the denominators in calculations are very small leading to wide variation from game to game). The other will be an Expectation for Wednesday’s triple slate of games. Until then, we cannot thank you enough for taking the time to read/peruse our content, nor can we express how your comments and suggestions have helped shape and (we hope) improve our content, nor can we emphasize enough that our growth, not only on the webpage itself, but also on Facebook and LinkedIn, is 100% due to our readers sharing with others. We’ll see you tomorrow, JoJo and G.
