From the Honolulu Advisor. I found this section to be of particular interest:
"Both of Boise State's openings involve MAC agreements as does Idaho's. Hurd said Bowling Green owes Boise State a return game from two years ago and the MAC owes the Broncos an unidentified opponent from last year when Boise State assumed a game against Utah in exchange for a MAC opponent this year. But so far, Hurd said, the team to fulfill the obligation "was never identified, still hasn't been identified and is likely not to be identified.""
We owe Boise a return game when they never came here??? And the MAC asking us to drop the Boise game last year caused the MAC to owe Boise another game? Boise got the chance to stay closer to home and play more of a 'rival' and the MAC agreed to send another team out there this year for helping them land a better game last year. More evidence of the ineptitude of the MAC office.

Although it's not usually used in that context, it sounds like BG owes bsu a "return game" at your place. For some reason, presumably scheduling, BG doesn't want the homegame with BSU this year.
Since BSU started scheduling MAC opponants, it sounds like 3 of the first 4 games have or will be cancelled. The game at BG last year, the game at BG this year and the game that the MAC owes BSU for playing at Utah last year all seem in doubt. I'm sure that the game in Boise next year would also be cancelled. BSU also has future dates with Toledo and Miami.
It's unfortunate if the rest of the games with BG are/will be cancelled because I was looking forward to going to the game in BG.
Harold and Kumar go to White Castle. Amazing movie. Cinematic masterpiece. Just make sure you're really hungry, kinda drunk, or both when you watch it though.

Definitely one of my top 10 favorite movies. It's just plain funny as all hell.
I think the bottom of the story is the most important part of that article:
Gary Richter, associate commissioner of the Mid-America Conference, declined comment but said the conference is expected to announce its schedule, "sometime next week."
Either way, we should be finding out where things stand next week.
Some more schedule bumping by the MAC. Kent State, at the request of the MAC, was added to UK's Schedule to replace Temple. This also gives UK its 8th home game. Kent's Head coach is a former UK quarterback.
