By winning tonight, Bowling Green costs the MAC an 8 million dollar pay day that would have been divided amongst all 13 teams, including BG. In addition, this forces NIU to a MAC Tied bowl, most likely costing them at least one bowl team.

So NIU looks to be going to Mobile after all. Ark State will get a ranked opponent again.

We saw Lynch two years ago. Good news is NIU's defense sucks.

BG wins 47-27

NIU won't be ranked on Monday.

I thought that the MAC sent it's #1 to GoDaddy (and that GoDaddy was pretty adamant about that). Doesn't that mean ASU plays BGSU, or have they already accepted another bowl?

Go Daddy has the 2nd pick this year. Though the LCPB never takes the MAC Champ it seems.

Bout as good as USM knocking Houston out of it two years ago. Sure hope Bowling Green does not suffer the same fate as USM, that has been a long, long drought of wins.

Just wait till this happens in the Sun Belt. We'll be reaming the team that did that.

MAC fans are actually angry at Bowling Green.

Why should they be? I would expect every team to try to win the f(cking conference championship if they're playing in it.

Thank of what the MAC lost today

BCS Bowl

Yes, they did. But you can't blame BGSU for playing to win.

No, but you can blame a system in which a game like this could somehow cost the league money and prestige.

They actually cost all of us money. Non BCS conferences will now split 14.25 mil instead of 28.5 mil if NIU had made it.

As a Boise fan I know what NIU fans are feeling. Heart goes out to em.

Did you play a drinking game tonight? 1 shot for every $100,000 the MAC lost?
