UB Loses To Bye Week

The poor showing of the Stony Brook game didn't hurt us, the bye week however did. If rankings work like the stock market, I'd take this as a sign that BCS Wall Street has no confidence in the Jeff Quinn Extension.

This Week's Games

There were 46 games involving MAC Teams. The rest of the season, there are only 58 games involving MAC teams. That means it'll be easier to watch our conference enemies and we'll get a lot more hot MAC on MACtion.

Noon Games:

Winless Miami travels to Illinois
NIU hopes to stay undefeated at Purdue

2:30 pm

Bowling Green looks to open a big lead on the MAC East with a win at home over Akron.

3pm

Toledo and Ball State battle for the early lead in the MAC West

3:30pm

Central Michigan at North Carolina State or CMUNCSTU
UConn at Buffalo Someone should be fired on field after this game, or extended for life I don't know anymore.

7pm

Kent State travels to Kalamazoo will the boat is taking on water, will they patch the hole, or get overtaking by a golden flash thunder storm.

BYE:

Ohio "What about" Bobcats, Massachusetts "300" Minutemen "till the Akron game", Eastern "the other Ann Arbor" Michigan resting up for the Ontario Sandwich game next week.
