Ivan Maisel (ESPN) lists Oklahoma as the #1 team in his top ten. This is what he says "I've got a sneaking suspicion that Bowling Green is pretty good, and the Sooners just took the Falcons apart." Gee thanks Ivan. :duh: took the Falcons apart? Well, I would say Minnesota took the Rockets apart.
But the Sooners did not take the Falcons apart.
:coo-coo:

I'd take more issue with the "sneaking suspicion" line than the "took them apart". While the game as a whole was a great effort by our guys, I don't think there's any question that the run defense was "taken apart".

Warthog,
I ended up emailing a couple guys at the Akron Beacon Journal because they lumped the BG/OK game in with all the MAC blowout losses. I tried to explain to them had they actually watched the game, they would have seen it was a very competitive game. I got a response from one telling me to calm down saying that wasn't the intent of the articles. Oh really?? Then why try to portray that game as a blowout in your articles????
I'm still peeved at them for trying to make it sound like a blowout.
Again, those of us that saw this game in person or TV know how well BG played.
