UW-Platteville at UW-LaCrosse
The Pioneers (1-1)and Eagles (1-1) are both coming off their first WIAC victory of the season. While the Pioneers have been somewhat of a surprise (3-2) and the Eagles have been a disappointment (1-4), Saturday represents a very real WIAC opportunity for each. Home field is the difference in a game in which both teams' offense is better than their defense.

UW-Oshkosh at Lambuth (TN)
Both teams are (2-3) and looking to rebound from disappointing losses in their last game. The Titans lost last Saturday to Stevens Point 41-17, while the Eagles have the benefit of a bye week after being shut out their two previous games. The Eagles wins this year came at the expense of NCAA D1 (FCS) Georgia State and NCAA D2 8th ranked West Alabama. UW-O defense might be what Lambuth needs to get right.

UW-Stevens Point at UW-Stout
The Pointers followed a disappointing loss to Eau Claire with a convincing win over Oshkosh heading into this WIAC showdown against Stout. The Blue Devils played UW-Whitewater strong before falling to even their WIAC record after beating River Falls in their WIAC opener. Point has won 7 straight in this series. Expect a close battle between two of WIAC's best.

UW-Whitewater at UW-Eau Claire
Nothing against the Pioneers, but when is the last time a team beat St. John's and lost to UW-Platteville in the same season? Such is the nature of the 2010 version of the Blugolds. UW-W comes in nicked up in the backfield, but not on the offensive line. That probably spells trouble for the Blugolds who rank 157th nationally against the run.
