This is how people in Toledo like to start rumors....


Since the recent announcement of OSU denying ESPN to be on campus, that i found out about Tues. night, ESPN is scrambling to find a location for it's gameday show, and they also have no game for noon as of yet to be on ESPN. According to my brother, who lives in Chicago, and, honest to god is good friends with Kirk Herbstreit, They went To Centerville High School together, are looking at the possibilities of moving the UT game to noon THIS SATURDAY, and gameday would broadcast live from Toledo. This is just what he said, (my brother), but take it with a grain of salt. I really don't think this would or could happen. It is just too much to do in too little of time. THIS IS AS OF12:30AM on Wed. Just keep an eye out. Dont think it'll happen though. Just thought i'd pass along the info. My brother said Toledo is one of many options for games.

If it were true you'll see a gameday truck pull into Toledo tomorrow. I hope it's not true because I want our guys to have enough practice time as possible and changing days is only going to hurt BG, not help.

When has the NCAA ever moved a game UP in the calendar just so a morning talk show can be broadcast at a crap school like Toledo. THey can dream, but BG is the only place that Chris, Lee, and Kirk ever wanted to visit!


In the words of Steven Tyler...Dream on!

Here's the proof

This is one of those jokes with "when monkeys fly outta my butt" as the punchline, right?

Never. But I bet the first time they do it, they will be expecting some "mid-major" schools to rearange their schedules for ESPN. And those schools wil do so b/c of the amount of attention it will bring them. If ESPN would be jsut be more fair to the smaller school, we wouldnt have to jump up to do their bidding for the slightest reward.

anyway... sorry toledo, BOWLING GREEN is still the only MAC school you'll see gameday at! :P

It would have been the first time Gameday has been on a campus that didn't have a game scheduled that day?

NOT!
