And yep ... Spence, you're up next.

Your clock started at 11:oo am, so you have until midnight.

Well nuts, I knew I was giving away Houston when I took Iowa but I felt Cincy would make it back around, so close.

Oh well, I will take Louisville and Ball State.

ODU has a quality QB and will certainly put up some points. If the defense figures it out they could end the season on a lil 3 game win stretch and just maybe find themselves in a bowl game, who doesnt these days tho. I think more than 7 wins is a stretch but for a new FBS member thats a quality season. Of course, he could be waiting til the end and we just put the team on other peoples radar.

Yeah, especially when the teams we have been plucking are starting to alter each others watch list.

Louisville in particular (though, I didn't really expect them to make this far, let alone til the end of Round 7). Ball State was a team I was just hoping others forgot about.

.

Spence, back to you.

Highfly made his selection at 4:40 pm starting your clock at 5 pm.

You have until 6 am to made your round seven pick.

ODU is in their second year of transitioning so they won't quite be eligible yet. I think their defense will be their undoing, but they will be a fun team to watch going forward. I see them winning 2 or 3 C-USA games while beating Hampton and Eastern Michigan.

Virginia Tech, only because I think they will be that "pesky" team that wins games 17-10 against mediocre teams. I think their offense will be a sputtering mess but the defense will save them a bunch of games. I do think they will get off to a mediocre start (3-3) and everybody writes them off before they close out the year by winning their last 6.

They can beat Ohio State. Braxton Miller hasn't been throwing in practice. They say it is a protective measure because of his surgery. It sounds to me that he isn't fully recovered. With a new offensive line Miller needs to be 100% or a good defense will tee off on him. I hope I am wrong, but Miller is being handled like he isn't close to being ready.

Got it ...

Warrriorsfan you're on.

Donovan made his selection at 9:30 am, starting your clock at 10:oo (5 am in Hawai'i)

So you will have until 11 pm eastern time (which is 6:oo pm in Hawai'i) to make your 7th Round pick.

Warriorsfan messaged me and is taking Fresno State. Cane messaged me (due to Internet issues) and had Fresno and Miami for the next two picks, which means he only gets Miami. Cane is still on the clock.

With my last pick, I now have two Teams from the AAC. I may take 1 more team from the AAC.

And with Highfly's pick of Louisville, he has two teams from the ACC, both from the Atlantic Division. Highfly may take 1 more team from the ACC, and only from the Coastal Division.
