Might this be one of the better early bowls?
Plenty of offense? Could this bowl be a high scoring affair like last year's classic?
Or could this bowl be part of the series of 'first bowl wins, 2015 edition'?
If I got this right, prior to Saturday, Appy State, Akron, Georgia Southern and Western Michigan had not won a D-I bowl game.
WMU going to get their first today???? (Even EMU has a bowl win, the 1987 California Bowl).

Interesting. Didn't know that beating Toledo was the first time ever that WMU beat a top 25 ranked team.
Go Broncos! The MAC needs a boost!
Interesting Bowl Matchup!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Who can forget last year's Bahamas Bowl???

Really nice win by the Broncs....rang up over 600 yards of total offense and rushed for almost 200 yards. After the disappointment of the BG and NIU outcomes yesterday, this sure was a nice remedy for my "MAC bowl hangover" today!

Is that how Bahamian prostitutes ply their trade?
Or maybe "Everything's more expensive in the Bahamas"
Forty five points is better in the Bahamas...
Exciting game. Satisfying win.
Almost threw the TV out the window when we were offsides on the onsides kick.
Welp, it's up to the Chippies as to whether the MAC has a winning or losing bowl record.
Fleck had his team ready to play. Congrats to him and the Broncos.
Despite BGSU winning the title over NIU, I would revise my power rankings to say Toledo is #1 and WMU #2 at season end. The performance of NIU and BGSU in their respective bowls is sad.

Can't put Toledo at #1 when they choked twice in their most important games of the season. Yes, great win over Temple, but to put it in perspective, Temple actually came up short in the AAC.
So the bowl between them was just bragging rights between the "almost could have been" teams in their respective conference.
Even without including Temple, how do you jump over the team you lost to (Western Michigan) for the #1 spot?

Toledo had the best record of any team in the MAC.
Toledo had some of the more impressive out of conference wins, Arkansas, Iowa St, Arkansas St, and Temple, which included 2 wins over ranked teams.
Toledo was the only MAC teams to beat BGSUcks.
Toledo has the best resume of anyone in the conference.
Toledo ranks #1 in my book as well.

This really hurts but UT is No. 1 in the MAC (IMO).
