Wes...why wouldn't Toledo be the #3 MAC since they beat us early?  I would think we would be #4 given we beat both Miami and Temple.

I'm just going by the opinion of the Little Ceasar's director. NIU wants to play in the Humanitarian against Nevada and that is all but a done deal. Miami is next in line according to the director followed by Ohio. Toledo would definetly bring more fans but Ohio would bring better TV ratings I guess across the state.

The New Mexico Bowl is OUT for the Cats. The reason is that according to contract if the Mountain West is short of bowl eligible teams, Army automatically takes the place of the MWC in the Ft. Worth bowl. The MWC would then be sending a team to the New Mexico against a WAC opponent contractually obligated as the WAC was 4 for 4 in placing their teams in bowls.
 

Yes, and you can thank our good friends at Kent for making Army bowl eligible.  Got to love those Flashes.

Think about what the Sun Bowl would do for recruiting. Its games like that the turn the tide for programs. Frank no longer would have to tell a recruit what he will do, he can show them what he's already done!
