Was reading through the chat log for ESPN's Andrea Adelson and saw some MAC questions in there.

What are your predictions for the NIU @ Kansas game? Is there anyway Kansas can stop the juggernaut that is the NIU offense? NIU right now is anywhere from a 5-7 point favorite.

Andrea Adelson (4:01 PM)
I like NIU. The key of course is to slow down Chandler Harnish. My word what an opener he had! Ever since he took back the starting job, he has played like a man possessed.

Andrea,You never really answered my question. NIU over Wisconsin?Give me a final score on the NIU vs. Wisconsin game at Soldier Field.

Andrea Adelson (4:22 PM)
Let's get to that game next week!

Does Indiana try to hire Ball State's first year coach?

Andrea Adelson (4:10 PM)
What a win for Pete Lembo!

Quote:Bearcatvol (Dalton, GA)
It got lost in the shuffle a bit this weekend, but how huge for Ball State to stick it in the noses of IU last weekend? It doesn't get written about much but for those Indiana kids on BSU's roster that is a moment of a lifetime. I guess that South Florida better be on upset alert!

Andrea Adelson (4:11 PM)
It was a huge win. So big, it gets 2 comments on the chat today!

Hi Andrea, Steve Addazio's Temple Owls gave Villanova a proper beatdown to start the season in what has been a close game the past two years under (now Miami HC) Al Golden. Can we say that, at the very least, Addazio appears to have the Owls headed in the right direction? Do you still Temple losing at home to Penn State next Saturday?

Andrea Adelson (4:51 PM)
Well there is no drop off, right? I was impressed with the ease in which Temple won the game. But I want to see a full body of work, starting with FBS teams. And yes, I think Penn State wins.

Pat (Philadelphia)
Andrea, Temple put a nice pounding (42-7) on Villanova at the Linc on Thursday night in front of a vastly pro-Temple crowd of 33K. Can we end the argument over who the top BCS candidate in Philly is?

Andrea Adelson (4:54 PM)
Well Nova has the advantage because of Big East affiliation in other sports. But I don't think the Big East wants either of them right now.
