WKU is a Russell Athletics school and that's a Russell t-shirt... somebody at Russell screwed up big time. (BGSU is with Adidas)

Easy to confuse the two schools. They are both in towns named Bowling Green. One sits on top of a hill. The other is in one of the flattest counties this side of Kansas. One has a bird mascot. The other a big red blob. One once played in the basketball Final Four (now vacated). The other had Nate Thurmond and once beat a defending national champion. One had a legendary folk song written about it (http://www.lyrics.net/lyric/1995389). The other would not inspire even a dingbat to write a song about it. Yes, it's no wonder that this mistake was made. It's kind of like confusing Buffalo State University with the University of New York at Buffalo.

What you are saying is BG has an identity issue with WKU. Ohio has it with Ohio State and Miami with Miami Fl. Kent State has it with Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young.

And the rest of the MAC has "issues" with anybody. Therefore - have no "issues" at all.........unless of course they beat somebody that somehow 'matters'......Moot point until the win........

Somehow you missed my sarcasm, or I missed yours. ;-)

Kind of like how people think Buckeyes when they hear Ohio University. If I had a dollar for any time this has happened to me, especially when traveling on business.Granted, this happens mostly out of state, but still.
