Division I has about 365 schools. Just eight have been trying and failing to get to the NCAA tournament for as long or longer than Bowling Green, which has now gone 57 years without an NCAA appearance. Other schools suffering comparably to us include: -- Army -- West Point has never been to the NCAA...

Moose and Kingston Jr. totally botched this hire.

Bowling Green is a 10.5-point favorite this week.

In his press availability this morning, Coach Loeffler said that the team has suffered a couple of serious injuries that will force some adjustments. He isn't being specific, apparently not wanting to tip his hand to Fordham. "We had an interesting training camp to say the least," Loeffler...

We've known for a long time that we cannot compete in what is currently set up as FBS football. No, we do not know this. Ask Georgia Tech or Minnesota. I don't have a clue what the path forward is... We've been in the MAC for 72 years. That's the path forward. With respect to FBS football...GA Tech...

They want to make Augustana happy so they don't leave in the future Where would they go? Summit? I don’t know, nothing about this move makes sense to me. For a league with Bemidji State and other Minnesota schools, I can see the logic of Augustana. They seem funded well enough. It's obviously hard ...

Where would they go?

An informed Central Michigan fan is saying on the cnsbbs board that: "I'm hearing the MAC is having conversations with Illinois State and NDSU [North Dakota State] as it seeks a potential 14th full member addition." Obviously, Fargo is not terribly close to our footprint. But they have a w...

A little late for Alabama-Huntsville, unfortunately. That could have been a good rivalry.

orange ... [is] ... BG's primary identity color for crying out loud. I would argue that, in football at least, this color is actually brown in a couple of senses: 1. In football, brown is the traditional home uniform color. We got away from that during the Blackney and Meyer years, but overall brow...

At least wku is consistently in bowl games and if you're bowl eligible you're very likely to get a bowl game regardless of ties currently. Also a solid men's basketball program. I don't hate the umass move but I'm not sure how they make the conference better. I'd rather have gave Delaware a shot al...

Right now the MAC has BG, Miami, Western and UMass with hockey, right? It'd probably take Ohio U and another school not on the radar (Buffalo, maybe?) to have a shot at creating MAC Hockey without getting a hockey-only affiliate. Can't see it happening within the next 5 years, at minimum. The NCAA ...

Could make a little bit more sense if Fenton can work a miracle and add hockey to the Summit League. The CCHA/Midco news adds a lot of credibility to this tweet, below. If the CCHA knew that NCHC schools would also be broadcast on Midco Sports Plus, I think that probably would have made a big diffe...

We only had 3 games scheduled so far, so we had an open slot already. We seem to have had a trip to Minnesota planned in 2025 at one point. Fbsschedules.com was listing it as of last August, but the site removed the game in November. Game was rescheduled for 2028 https://fbschedules.com/minnesota-b...
