Week 1: CUSA vs. MAC & Sunbelt

[jdennis82]

I guess we all agree that CUSA belongs somewhere in the mix with the MAC and Sunbelt in conference supremacy. This first week does a good job in setting the stage for the season-long debate...

UAB at Troy

Looking at the schedules for the entire conference, it's nice to see largely winnable games throughout rather than previous Sunbelt week 1 schedules composed almost entirely of games as heavy underdogs against Power 5 teams.

Only one of those that seems like it could realistically be a loss is UAB @ Troy.

Tulsa @ Bowling Green could definitely be a loss.

Any of them could be losses, but UAB is the only one I wouldn't be surprised about.

You do know Bowling Green is favored, right? I'm not sure why you'd be surprised to see an underdog lose.
