They looked just as overmatched in the MAC Championship game... Toledo just took their foot off the gas earlier... I mean Akron has had their backup QB in the game since end of the 3rd quarter... FAU is still running out their #1's...

They still played in the title game. They beat us on our home field. Knowing that and watching what FAU has done to them makes me want to puke.

Notice FAU never started “chilling and relaxing” on the sidelines when they got up by a couple scores.

Although I have to say that going for 2 when up by 30 is a douche move by Kiffin.

He may be a douche, but he certainly got things done in his first year.

Given WMU's injuries, and the outta-gas way it ended the season...that could have happened to our Broncos if they were selected for a bowl game.

Glad to be focusing on what looks to be an outstanding recruiting class and next season.

WMU/FAU match up would have been closer. Akron has no running game and their DB's don't even look for the FB in coverage. Without any depth on Defense and run game, the Zip Defense just got worn down and the back technique started.

He claimed it was in retaliation for a Zips athletic staff member cocking off to him pre-game...

So he retaliated by going down to his level instead of taking the high road. Well, we've seen enough of that lately.
