FAU has won three straight under Kittley, Texas Southern Saturday (plus a free CFB pick'em)

Hey guys, quick look at where the Owls stand after Monroe.

First, since it's in the title: we run a free weekly college football pick'em. This week is 10 games, pick the winners, nothing to buy, $135 in prizes. No. 8 Florida at Missouri is on the slate, if you want to root against the team that hung 66 on us. Picks lock Saturday at noon ET, well before kickoff in Boca.

Now the Owls. After the opener in Gainesville, it's been three straight wins: 38-30 over Navy in the American opener, the Shula Bowl 16-10 over FIU, and Saturday's 45-17 at ULM. Veltkamp went 29 of 38 for 314 and two scores with no picks, a 28-point second quarter put it away, and the defense shut ULM out after halftime.

That's 3-1 and 1-0 in the American in year two under Zach Kittley. Texas Southern comes to Boca Saturday at 6 on ESPN+, a tune-up before the trip to Army.

What are you guys seeing? Is Veltkamp the best QB in the American, and is this a conference title team?

I think if we keep this up we could make something happen. Either way, I'm proud of the team. Definitely a step up from last year.

We may not have enough info to decide yet, but a if there's a win over Army plus the dominant win over Navy the title game may be a possibility.
