We've definitely come a long way since 2003, when Northern Illinois finished 10-2, with wins over Big Guys Maryland, Iowa State and Alabama...and DIDN'T GO TO A BOWL.
Five MAC teams are in bowl games this year:
FAMOUS IDAHO-- Buffalo
BEEF O'BRADY-- Ohio
LITTLE CAESAR'S-- Bowling Green
POINSETTIA-- Northern Illinois
GO-DADDY-- Ball State.
Northern plays Utah State in the Poinsettia Bowl, but I would have rather seen them play in the Beef O'Brady Bowl in St. Petersburg, Florida, against East Carolina, one of my all-time favorite teams. I also would have preferred the Go-Daddy Bowl in Mobile, Alabama, where we played Arkansas State two years ago. Arkansas State is back at the Go-Daddy.
Oh, Well. --RoadDog
