MDZip Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 There are plenty on the "waiting list" and the Can't-OU game is the "Pillow Fight of the Week". but I can't remember another time when not a single MAC team was in the official Bottom Ten. So at least we got that going for us. http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?page=bottom10086 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skip-zip Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 It's funny. My first glimpse at the first couple of words of this post made me think that it was another testinomy about a certain candidate's wife talking about how she, for the first time, is proud of her country. :blink: Kinda scared me there for a minute. Glad to see it was sports related instead. MDZip....I'm sure glad that we have no teams down at the North Texas level in our league but it doesn't really cure the notion that we are one of the worst conferences in D-1A. I'm sincerely hoping that this is the year where we change. Currently, we have some teams ranked respectably high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And IMHO, they're every bit as good as last season's Sugar Bowl Busts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoZips88 Posted October 9, 2008 Report Share Posted October 9, 2008 TERRIBLE showing in bowl games last year. I sure hope that changes this year. Nice to have Ball State in the Top 25. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice to have Ball State in the Top 25.Good point, GoZips88. We need a better showing in 2009, and I think we've got a real shot at a couple of W's this year. Afterall, the OOC results have been quite a bit better this year than in the past few years. I'm not just considering W's and L's here, but also the good showings. As pointed out in other threads, un-biased polls such as Sagarin's have the MAC on par with Conf USA this year and that has not typically been the case.
