I'm rooting for Miami to beat BG, because BG would be the worst opponent in the MACC. But it's not going to happen.

Buffalo has the easiest path to the MACC with BG and Ohio at home. If they win tonight they pretty much eliminate Ohio from the race.

Buffalo's 3 point win over a 3-5 Stony Brook is really impressive.
You've way underestimated BGSU.

i disagree. Buff has Ohio at home, @ Tol, @ Miami, BG. 3 of 4 final games are tough.

I'm just talking in terms of computers and perception. I think NIU gets more credit beating Buffalo or Ohio so I'd rather face them. I do think BGSU is right up there with them in reality though.

Buffalo also has a game up on Ohio and Buffalo so even if they lose to Toledo they're still in the driver's seat if they can take care of business at home.

Instead of playing Toledo, BG plays EMU, otherwise the opponents are the same.

Yikes, horrible call on that Ohio fumble and Buffalo recovery. And for the replay officials to overturn it. Inexcusable.

Well, after watching this game, do you "fear" Buffalo? 03-lmfao

The good thing is, watching this game may make Toledo take them lightly. Of course, it may not make any difference.
