So far, looks like App State watched the tape of our game against Toledo for the formula of how to take it to the Rockets. Tough defense and running game.

Ohio may very well wind up having the only MAC bowl win for the last 2 years.

Is Toledo really this bad or is Appy state just this good?
Makes the MAC look pretty weak.

They ain't that bad . . . they lead Miami (Fl) at half. As sometimes happens in bowl games they look totally out of sync. I agree with the observation that their staff viewed our tape and discovered some of UT's weaknesses. I noticed in the first half a lot of option plays that look like things we run. Also, the way they constantly gambled with the blitz.

I would not bet against NIU vs. Duke. NIU played ranked San Diego State very tough, beat a B14 team on the road.

I'm left wondering how OHIO would have done against App State. I think our offense would have performed way better than UT's. But we'll never know.

I agree with much that you say. Bowl games aren’t necessarily an indication of quality of teams.

Re the Miami game,Miami hadn’t played in 3 weeks because of hurricanes and they ended up winning by 3 TD’s. They don’t give out awards for leading at halftime.

After watching Ohio throttle Toledo, I found myself thinking, "Too bad for Toledo that Woodside is a one-dimensional quarterback." Yesterday I found myself thinking the same thing. Both Ohio and App State didn't need to worry about Woodside as a running threat. Swanson shut down by both the Bobcats and Mountaineers.

What's really embarrassing for the MAC is that the two teams that played for the MACC were outscored 84-3 in their bowl games. Sheesh.
