Wisconsin up 44-0 over CMU at the half.....

Not the MAC, but ex-MAC Football member UMass is down 17-13 at the half against Illinois' PREMIER FCS team, the SIU Salukis.

GO Salukis!

Saw that. CMU has 27 yards of offense for the first half......I don't thiink they'll have our number this year like in years past. I know Wisconsin is good, but.........

Interesting how NIU, Toledo,WMU and Ohio are always in the mix for division titles, year after year. The flashes inthe pans (!) like Kent State, Bowling Green, Ball State, have their occasional years but then fall off the earth. The top of the MAC can hang with the big boys and put off the occasional upset.

Kansas State put 52 on BG today.

That's what happens when you have 27 yards and give up 399 yards in the 1st half!

BG got waxed by Kansas St. 52-0 with only 140 yards of O!

I thought Ohio might beat Pitt, but they lost 20-10, with only 212 yards of O and gave up 481 yards.

Announcers were saying Nathan Rourke had strep or something. Too bad, the MAC needs a good win.

LOL, you just just like to "rock the boat", don't you?

Rourke is the best QB, by far, in the MAC. Hopefully the MACC will be ROurke vs. Bowers, what a game that'll be.

I'll never forgive or forget BG mauling us in the 2014 MACC to cost us another New Year's Day bowl. Cost us cred and a ton of money, too, not to mention Herbie whining like a little kid.

No. Just calling it like it is.

They have only one division title in recent years and it just so happened to coincide with NIU's worst year in like two decades. That's the definition of flash in the pan.

2nd best. Give it time.

Flipped on a bit of the Akron-UAB game. Looked like about 1,000 people there. Akron announced attendance at 19,000.

The best MAC teams have the best coaches. Nice that we made what is looking more and more like a significant upgrade in that regard this year!

Again, not the MAC, but Nebraska looks improved from Week 1.

I was at that game and sadly they beat us soundly and deserved that win.

Akron and BG look like they will battle for conference bottom.

MAC East looks to be worse than usual this year.

UPDATE: Salukis putting a whooping on UMass 38-13 in the 4Q.

Happy for Coach Trevor Olson and the Salukis.

Also, I'd like to clarify, when I say PREMIER FCS team I mean no disrespect to that team from Central Illinois. It's having a decent showing today against Connecticut. Lovie Smith may just keep his job after this year.
