I had a great day thanks to Iowa State and some of Hellah and Goat's winners in the MAC.
Adding two late plays:
Hawaii -13 1H
PROP: Syracuse v Auburn: Cadillac Williams Over 122.5 yards -115
Due to time constraints, I'll cut and paste the relevant points from SportsNetwork:
While it is difficult to find fault with Syracuse's offensive performance against Rhode Island, the defense was not nearly as impressive. The Orangemen yielded 273 yards on 55 rushing attempts, an average of just under five yards per carry.
They also allowed 172 passing yards to be gained on only nine completions, proof that the secondary is susceptible to big plays. While Syracuse did force three turnovers, it only mustered one sack in four quarters against a Division I-AA team. Through three games, the Orangemen are yielding 29.7 points and 498.7 total yards per game. Needless to say, this unit is a far cry from the 2001 Syracuse defense, widely regarded as one of the best in the nation. Opponents have found it easy to run and throw the ball, gaining 214.3 yards on the ground and 284.3 yards through the air on average.
Auburn was once again strong on offense in the victory over Mississippi State, as both the passing and ground attack proved effective. Daniel Cobb threw three touchdown passes in the second quarter and Carnell Williams rushed for two scores in the fourth, producing more than enough points to overcome a slow start. Through four games, Auburn is averaging 36.5 points and 417.5 yards of total offense per contest. The ground attack, which accounts for 229 yards an outing and 5.3 yards per carry, depends heavily on the ample skills of Williams. "Cadillac" leads the SEC in rushing touchdowns with seven to go along with his 437 yards. His combination of breakaway speed, power, and elusiveness make him one of the top backs in the nation.
Auburn doesn't play again until 10/12, so I don't think Auburn will feel compelled to rest Williams early.
