I have very little to say about the Ohio Bobcats, other than giving you the Twitter rundown. I don't like them, and neither should you. If it weren't for Rufus taking out Brutus Buckeye, I don't know what positive thing I'd have. But the guy inside of Rufus wasn't even an OU student. Can't even do that right, guys.
Bryan Vance, who runs Hustle Belt, is both an Ohio fan and a St. Louis Cardinals fan, so he's going to be extra insufferable for you Buffalo/Red Sox fans like Tim out there. Just remember, if you dislike the Red Sox, you also dislike the Cardinals, you just don't know it because they hide behind their Midwestern charm. Also, Anheuser Busch is a terrible company and you can find better beer in my dad's basement.
You'll discover that (1) Head Coach Frank Solich does not have a twitter account. I'm just as shocked as you guys. (2) Ohio has a ton of media covering it, a lot more than any This Week in #MACtion yet. (3) Ohio has not one, but two squirrel-related twitter accounts. I really just don't understand at this point. I swear I'm not looking hard for them just to keep a joke going.
First the general MAC folks always worth a follow:
Hustle Belt - @sbnation's Mid-American Conference blog and #1 grit liquidator. Cheerfully operated by Bryan M. Vance (@BryanMVance) 'n friends.
Matt Sussman, Former Managing Editor, Hustle Belt - I write the puns that make the whole world cringe. @baseballpro and @HustleBelt. You should try curling
Bryan Vance, New Managing Editor at Hustle Belt - Beard Aficionado. El Capitan @HustleBelt home of all things #MACtion. Ohio Football guy for @WOUBSports, & producer of @SportsBeatWOUB
Please note that Hustle Belt went from a BG fan to a Ohio fan. Thank goodness we have BullRun
Other Fan Websites: @VanDelaySports; @TheMacDaily; @macreportonline - None of these three have updated in a while. Maybe they've been elbowed out by SBNation
From the Conference Office:
MAC Sports - This is the Official Twitter home of the Mid-American Conference. Bringing you #MACtion 365 days a year!
Ken Mather - Assistant Commissioner/Media & Public Relations, Mid-American Conference.
Jeremy Guy - Looking for some #MACtion? You have come to the right place! Director of Comunications for the Mid-American Conference. #CLE Born & Raised. (Tweets are my own)
A must-follow
FakeGuyMAC - I am just a guy who works for the MAC. Parody. Unlike the MAC, which should be taken seriously at all times.
