<table> </table> &#8226;<strong>Northwest Missouri State(5-1, 4-0) at Central Missouri (5-1, 3-1), 1:30 p.m. Saturday</strong></p><p>This is Central Missouri&#8217;s last chance this season to show that it deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as Northwest Missouri State and Pittsburg State. The only way for the Mules to win is to mix the run with the pass and keep Northwest Missouri&#8217;s ferocious defense off-balance. Central Missouri has the offense to do it with Glenn Milner running and Eric Czerniewski passing. Still, the Bearcats are now scary good. <strong>Boyce&#8217;s pick: </strong>Northwest Missouri State 35-14.</p><p>&#8226;<strong>Missouri Western (2-4, 1-3) at Nebraska-Omaha (3-2, 2-2), 1 p.m. Saturday</strong></p><p>If Nebraska-Omaha wants to return to the NCAA Division II playoffs it absolutely needs to win this game. But it won&#8217;t be easy. After three weeks of tough losses, Missouri Western finally won a close game. That could boost the Griffons&#8217; confidence. <strong>Boyce&#8217;s pick: </strong>Nebraska-Omaha 28-21.</p><p>&#8226;<strong>Baker (3-2, 3-1) at William Jewell (2-4, 2-3), noon Saturday</strong></p><p>Baker has won two straight and is starting to establish itself as the team just below the top three of Missouri Valley, MidAmerica Nazarene and Lindenwood. William Jewell is fighting to return to middle-class status, but home field might not be enough for the Cardinals. <strong>Boyce&#8217;s pick: </strong>William Jewell 21-17.</p><p><hr class="infobox-hr-separator" /> <div class="infobox"> <strong><span class="subhead">William Jewell sophomore quarterback Drew Witman</span></strong></p><p>&#8226;<strong>Size: </strong>6 feet 1, 190 pounds</p><p>&#8226;<strong>Hometown: </strong>Charlotte, N.C.</p><p>&#8226;<strong>Notable: </strong>In a 34-14 victory over Avila last week, Witman threw three touchdowns, all of which were 20 or more yards.
