It must be a record, only two MAC teams made the inaugural Bottom 10 list from ESPN and there weren't any others lurking in the Others Receiving Votes category either!

The MAC better hurry up and extend an invitation to that traditional powerhouse Western Kentucky.

Can't believe ESPN was brave enough to put USC on that list...Could the four letter network actually be sprouting a pair of huevos?

Ok 28, I know you are looking for a response. Here goes:   First, I am NOT from KY.  Second, by recommending these guys I was actually following the MAC system of adding to the bottom which I apologize for.

Here's the zinger...WKU adds a ton more for B-ball, I bet they draw better than EMU (who doesn't) in football and they add another state to the MAC regional "appeal' (hahaha).  Even better, they subtract one school from a state the MAC has three directionals from!

Also, I see you don't talk about MTSU...I am not from TN either.  Oh, I guess you don't mention them 'cause according to the USATODAY/Sagrins they'd be a threat to win the MAC this year.

No I dont blame you for making the recommendation about WKU and MTSU. Its a valid one that probably has a good chance of happening. I just think the only way this conference is going to ever become more respectable is by subtracting and eliminating the donkeys, not adding more to the herd.

BTW I predicted an Ohio vs MTSU bowl game this year.

28...I think we both really agree probably the best way to improve the MAC is by subtraction.
