Miami will probably receive their largest TV rating/audience ever due to an extra 10,000 Ohio fans watching to see if they lose.

So we may be helping them get on TV more. ESPN will look at their rating and say...let's pit the RedChickens on more B/C they did so well in that game with Temple.

Miami just went ahead of the Temples 6-3, but added further proof that Miami sucks...by missing the extra point.

Miami won't get any credit for ratings, Temple will. ESPN= east coast bias.

Give credit where its due to the ESPN programmers. It was pretty questionable to give a 1-10 team from last year TV games on ESPN in November but they did it anyway. Turned out they were right and Miami played like the little red choo-choo train that could all season long and up the MAC East standings.
