Central Michigan at 2-2 after the Miami trip, Akron is the one that matters now (plus week 5 of our free CFB pick'em)
Hey guys, back with a follow-up since the last one got a good conversation going.
First, since it's in the title: week 5 of our free college football pick'em is open. 10 games, pick the winners, nothing to buy, $135 in prizes. Picks lock Saturday at noon ET.

Now the Chips. Miami was the payday game I expected, 52-3, and I'm not reading much into it. The defense has allowed 20 points across the two wins, but whether it holds up in MAC play is still open.
That makes Akron, Saturday at 3:30 ET at home, the game the 5-7 projection hinges on. Akron just lost 38-10 at home to UNLV. Win this, and the Ohio trip becomes a shot at a winning record.
The thing I'm watching is Flores. He's been doing his damage on the ground (122 vs Colgate, 163 and 2 TDs vs Wyoming). Does that hold up against a MAC defense with film on him?
How are you guys seeing Akron? Comfortable win or a trap?

Stoked!!! Just bought tickets to LV. vs. Den on Dec 20th. Making it a 3 generation party.
Shitpost warning.
Back in ‘82, my dad was financially able to buy season tickets and then the raiders moved to LA. 35 years later, I’m ready to buy Oakland tickets and they move to LV. That’s life.
My oldest son was able to go to one single game before the move. It was the infamous Thursday night win over KC and he told me it was the best day of his life. Just imagine a little 9 year old chanting F@ck tha chiefs!!! I get choked up thinking about it.
All that to say, I’m taking my dad and son to watch our boys solidify their position at the top of the division. Hope to see ya’ll there!

WHOS WITH ME, BRING ADAM THIELEN TO THE RAIDERS! REPOST!!!
UPVOTE IF YOU WANT THIS!!! Adam Thielen has said he'd be fine with coming out of retirement if its the right situation, and his old QB, Kirk Cousins is STARTER! This would be a nice addition to the WR room! Who's with me? GET THIS NOTICED! REPOST
