Yeah Its pretty bad but its the only way these lower budget commentators can give there 2 cents on the National Championship tomorrow since we all know they wont be there anyway. Really hoping the Chips can pull off the win. The MAC needs a bowl win BAD!!!

It's not looking good. The Mac's bowl losing streak is beyond embarrassing :(

Thank goodness CMU pulls out the win. I think if Troy would have won there could have been a pretty good argument that the Sun Belt had surpassed the MAC. It's still close but I think the MAC is just a bit better.

The Sun Belt is getting stronger and the MAC seems to be on average getting kind of "meh", but I think top to bottom, it's still no contest. At most, Troy's win would have evened their season series against the MAC. Instead, they now have to do our laundry. :-D

And I just love Rod Gilmore and his concern for Sandy Alomar, Jr. not getting into the Baseball HOF :roll:

They were obviously under some orders to hammer away at the BS title game. You could tell they were reaching after a while.

But I have to say this - Gilmore obviously studies because he's able to offer some good insights on most broadcasts, even if he's not a great announcer.

And I thought they maintained focus on the game through the 4th quarter and into OT. In fact, the play-by-play guy, when forced to talk about the NBA game to follow, kept saying, "but we've got a great one here" or something similar.

Sidenote: I love the ads for Mobile. I really want to visit that city again!

I think the biggest factor in all of the fellating of the game today is that it is on ABC, ESPN's affiliate/owner/lover.

And you are right on about Mobile, '87. My dad and I were talking about how totally impressed we were with the city in 2004 last night during the game, and it seems that things are only getting better down there. And I must say, the mayor of Mobile seems like a totally awesome guy. I know nothing about him other than what I saw during the bowl coverage, but I would really like to have a beer with that guy.

It's gotta be hard to think about baseball when they're dreaming of a naked Dan Lefevour. :vom:

Yeah, that best QB in MAC history tag was a stretch IMHO.

He certainly can't hold a candle to Tim Hiller.
