We're often at odds here with the PD's Elton Alexander. But he is obviously right in his wrap up story today on the Cats win over NIU. Ohio is now in a good spot for a better bowl game. Time for the AD to pounce and get a matchup like the independence Bowl a couple of years ago. An 8-4 record should get us a nice warm setting. And Frank looked like he was getting a cold last night.

I wouldn't mind seeing Ohio take on Georgia Southern, Appalachian State, UConn, Cicinnati, Duke, Louisville, or Boise State.

Just please no more Big Ten schools. The MAC does enough of that crap in the regular season.

Of the teams you mention, I'd most prefer a matchup with Duke. Why? ACC and given Duke's unexpected slippage a beatable ACC'er.

They just don't put all the bowl eligible teams in a pot and pair them up based on who deserves a better bowl. None of the MAC bowl tie-ins involve P5 teams.

Perimeter, that is one of the things I have noticed with all the prognosticators. i don't think the P5 guys play anyone other than P5 teams. Something is fishy here...or is it turkey?

It looks like the ACC will be down 1 bowl slot.

It also looks like the B1G will be down at least 1 bowl slot.

My wish (pipe dream?) is the Pinstripe Bowl at Yankee Stadium.
