With non-conference games winding down, it’s no surprise to see that the SEC continued it’s domination of non-conference foes taking the top spot every week of the poll. The ACC became just the second team to project a winning record vs non-conference BCS teams. The Big Ten continued to hold the second place spot in the overall projected record and the record vs non-conference FBS teams. The MAC continues to sit in the basement in 2 of 3 categories.

As you have probably noticed that there has been a change to a new interactive blog which many feel is an upgrade with the technical advantages to it, although it does give a completely different look to the blog. What we’ll be doing from now on, is having two blogs up on the site, you can look at it in the interactive version, comment and interact and the old version as well, with just the text available. That will be listed on the home page with a “Looking for the Old Blog Format – CLICK HERE” link.
The San Diego St/New Mexico St game was closer than the final. While the Aztecs led 17-7 mid-3Q, New Mexico St tied it at 17 with 12:27 left. San Diego St threw incomplete on 4th & 1 but pass interference gave them a FD and they continued on a 78 yard, 9 play drive for a TD. New Mexico St’s punter fumbled the snap which led to an 18 yard FG for the Aztecs then after a 39 yd IR to the 5 two plays later with just 2:56 left, San Diego St punched in a TD on 2nd down.

Every week we will post my Forecasts of all the games involving Top 25 teams. As usual, it includes my computer’s projected box score for each game.
So far this year the Top 25 Forecasts have gone 71-16 82% picking the winners of each game.

On the bottom of the forecast, I have listed some Upset Specials which have pulled the upset 5 out of 11 times including Marshall last week. Combined the first four weeks record is 76-22 78%!!
