Ohio had to wait until season's end, but the Bobcats finally get their easiest game of the season in the finale. Ohio has won the last 5 meetings, which is the longest win streak for Ohio in series history, and the last 3 have been complete and utter blowouts. BG is still awful, just slightly less awful this year than in the last five years or so. Still, there is no way in hell Ohio is losing this game. BG hasn't had an answer for Ohio's offense in 5 years whatsoever, and BG's offense has been extremely ineffective except for one game all year. Ohio will get out in front early and pull away as BG will have no chance at keeping pace, let alone winning this game. They simply don't have the horses to stay with OU. Ohio will end the year winning 3 of its last 4, which will be a nice springboard into next season.

Watching Scott Loeffler and Albin match wits live in-person inside a walk-in freezer was something to behold.

Mr. Anybody is my choice for QB next year, too!

Harris can run and throw.

From what I saw today an accurate passer is in order.

A transfer may work.

That says as much about how bad the East is as it does about the West. There will be eight eligible MAC teams which has certainly happened before. I think only once did eight MAC teams get to play and I think that was a result of La. Tech screwing themselves accidentally by not wanting to play UL-Monroe in the Independence Bowl. They let the MAC have that spot with the secondary contract. When NIU made the BCS the MAC had seven other bowls they could cover and no other spots were open. Could the MAC get eight again?

I'm looking at the projections on team rankings. Their projections sum to 81.3 eligible teams which means there is a realistic chance all eligible teams could get a bowl.

They have 73 eligible teams. Then there are 22 other teams have a chance. If half if them win then 2 eligible teams would sit. The thing is most of them should apparently be underdogs this week. We have seen in the past where slightly more 5-6 teams pull upsets than you might expect but it doesn't always happen. I don't know if that's a real motivational affect against an opponent where the difference between 7 and 8 wins might not matter as much.
