This is an hour long MAC East preview.

Also recently from the same account is the 50 best players in the MAC. It is probably just one man's opinion but he posts stuff like this on every conference all summer long. This will probably make some of you angry.

BigGameBoomer is my guy. He's going to a game in Athens this year as well. Apparently, he was wearing an OU shirt while recording as well, which he pointed out.

The coverage of BIGSECSUPERDUPER12 is a crowded space.

I'm enjoying the added attention the MAC is getting the last few years. More the merrier.

Spoilers: Both thought OU would go 8-4 (2-2 non-conf, the other 1-3 non-conf) neither thought OU would win the MAC Championship, but would definitely be in the running and could for sure win it.

CFN has us at 7-5, 6-2. They predict we'll lose three of the four OOC games. Predicted MAC losses are at BG and at Buffalo. https://collegefootballnews.com/cfn/ohio-football-schedul...

I haven't seen an actual MAC preview and I haven't gone through all 12 team previews, but they predict Toledo to win 8.5 games, Ohio and EMU 7 each, MOFO, Buffalo and NIU at 6.5 each, CMU 6, BSU, BG and WMU at 5.5 each, Akron 4.5, and Kent 3.5. https://collegefootballnews.com/cfn/college-football-win-...

These definitely won't be the Vegas lines, and if they are I'd bet my house Toledo wins more than 8.5 and OU wins more than 7.

I started a thread when the opening win totals cam out in May. I don't think those totals came from Vegas because I don't think Kent State was ever at 3.5 or WMU 5.5. I don't see anyone betting the over if that were the case. Toledo did however open at 8.5 and is still there. Ohio did open at 7 and rapidly moved to 7.5.

Most of this guy's tweets are nothing but click-bait for engagement. For instance, today's he did the Top 50 entrances in college football. EMU is at #8. Someone who has actually been to an EMU game will have to explain that one to me.

I have never been but I know that they use a sledge hammer to knock down a cinder block wall rather than just running trough a hoop with paper or something like that.

My last game there they barely got through the wall. Never really knocked it down as they sort of jumped it after beating on it like what seemed forever.

Ok that's pretty cool.
