Yes Nickle they are. Buffalo lost too much from last years team but I still fear them far more than Akron, which needs a total rebuild from Bowden. We have a great draw this year with respect to cross-division scheduling.

I watched the CMU-WMU game today and was very surprised. CMU still plays some pretty good defense despite losing their All MAC defensive end to U-M. Their offense is anemic like last year but is very young and Pimpleton, their transfer receiver is very talented. Western is extremely talented and should indeed be favored when we play them.

The thing that struck me the most is that both teams were very undisciplined and the amount of penalty flags was incredible! CMU's youth makes this reasonably understandable. By contrast, Western has the most returning starters in MAC, but today they were "Holding and Personal Foul University" in their own stadium against an inferior opponent. That is on the coach, I question how effective Lester is.

I'm with Glory Days, Toledo, once again, is the team to beat.
