I love that Fiami has Toledo and Ohio back-to-back weeks. Those are two massive games. This is the MAC, nobody goes undefeated. Methinks the Redchickens will have some losses come November!

If Toledo wins Saturday they'll have a good shot at going unbeaten in the conference. The rest of their schedule has home games vs Buffalo and EMU and road games at BG and CMU. MOFO is the best shot at a loss left for the Rockets.

Don't underestimate BG in that rivalry game. The "Good BG Team" may show up that day. It's often a sellout game. The adrenaline will be flowing on both sides of the ball and BG will be at home.

Buffalo, who is now tied with Ohio and Miami for first place in the East with a 3-1 record, also faces Toledo and Ohio in back to back weeks, and they follow that with Miami.

It almost feels like Buffalo is in the same position as Ohio was last year. Kent State, Miami, and Buffalo were supposed to be the teams. Miami lost Gabbert for a while, Kent, the defending champs, started out beating us then sort of lost its MOJO. Then we changed the MAC East race by beating Buffalo.

Miami lost Gabbert again and Ohio might be losing its MOJO. Buffalo still has an opportunity to beat both Ohio and Miami.
