Week 9 picks: Three picks for three timeslots

The Group of 5 offers a path back above .500. Plus, when it's Pat Narduzzi against Notre Dame, it usually isn't pretty.

SMU may be ACC-bound, but it’s making the most of its last season in the AAC.

Brian Newberry started his head-coaching career by kicking a field goal at the 3:33 mark with his Navy team down 42-0 to Notre Dame.

He continued to show a habit of perplexing decision-making by going for two after scoring a late touchdown against Air Force that had cut the deficit to 17-6.

The Midshipmen missed the conversion, we missed them covering a 10.5-point spread, and now we are under .500 for the year.

This is why you shouldn’t gamble.

If you do, though, then these are the picks we would recommend for this weekend.
