That's a huge spread. Toledo should win but I wouldn't touch that one.

I think the big story is that ESPN got the game moved to Saturday and it is their #2 game (#1 game gets ABC).

I'm predicting it to be closer than the regular season meeting but still have Toledo winning by at least two touchdowns. 35-21 so take the points and the under.

The biggest thing that's different from the regular season match-up is a new QB for Akron with a very different playstyle. I think he matches up better vs Toledo's offense, but there's a huge question about his inexperience and that could be magnified in a championship game.

BTW, big story is that many MAC fans got their wish: Saturday noon game.

ESPN/ABC is stacking their noon lineup with P5 conference championship games.

We'll see how the ratings are. There is no WMU or NIU going for a New Years Bowl game (think we all know that. Lol).

ESPN2 should be worse for CUSA

Ahead of the CUSA game (a no longer superior conference).

Very nice Toledo crowd. Toledo fans show up on Saturdays, week nights, etc. and know their way to Detroit.

The MACC has two teams with a worse combined record than the C-USA, methinks that ESPN is throwing us a bone for being their MACtion child.

I agree. Although it could be 'name recognition' (read that Toledo).

Me neither. The MAC East is almost always a big underdog, but they always come to play in the MACC.

Definitely the MAC is getting a bone for being the MACtion child.

But not only is the MAC more important than CUSA from a contract perspective its also a stronger top to bottom conference. As strong as the MWC since realignment.

Meanwhile, defense is optional in the AAC championship game.

That clicking sound you hear are non-Toledo fans changing channels.

As many feared, this game is a total mis-match.

03-lmfao West has four other teams that would win this game.
