Toledo up by one on Michigan State early in the 4th. Heard the announcers say the new coach brought in 14 transfers from Mercer (his old school). Toledo just scored on a long TD run..noticed our old friend Jake Newell got a nice kick out block on the play.

It so frustrating to see so many MAC teams really compete against these P4 teams every year and we get absolutely destroyed in every game. Throw out the Indiana game and every other game has been a complete embarrassment.

If it makes you feel better Kent is losing to South Carolina 22-0 rn

BGSU looks really bad.

They sure do. However, it's the only interesting game on TV. This will be a really bad loss for them.

OU getting pushed around by Nebraska in the 2nd half. Miami getting pushed around at Pitt.

I feel it's a bit overstated how competitive the MAC is in these games. Looking at week 1 only Toledo and UMass played a competitive 4 quarters against P4.

 

Kent is down 43 points.

Miami is down 31 points.

Ball State is down 46 points.

Ohio is down 21 points.

Buffalo needed a goal line stand to beat an FCS teams.

BG lost to Tarleton State.

Are they not trying hard?

I believe that you’ve been very critical of Joe - is he not trying hard? 

 

He coaches with a lot of "give up" in his heart, but I don't think he's not trying.

You need to actually believe. Bowden believed. I remember when they nearly beat Michigan! One Pohl completion away!

Of course you do.  And unfortunately for Akron, they hired a coach that largely doesn't.

I haven't been overly critical of him. If Akron fires him, he'll get a much higher paying job elsewhere. I think he's doing the best he can considering the circumstances.
