I must have missed the memo when they dropped divisions, so: How does the MAC determine who plays in its championship game?

I presume it's the teams with the two best records, but how will they break ties?

Luckily Funk and Wagnalls' front porch is not too far away up there in Fairfield County, and with our Lancaster branch nearby it should give Ohio the edge.

How many of the whippersnappers on this board have the slightest idea what we are talking about?

Thanks for the link, Victory.

Hmm. This could be kind of hard to track coming down the stretch if multiple teams are in play. (Not that I'm thinking OU is one of the top two teams this fall.) I think it was probably more fun and definitely easier to track just your school's own division. Oh well... we'll see how long this setup lasts.

My favorite Carnac answer was "Siss. Boom. Bah." The question was "What's the sound of a sheep exploding?"
