The season is not over. If we win out, we could still be going bowling. First thing's first, beat EMU!!!

And tonight my nightmares of Ray Rice start.

Man, Rutgers would be tough.

Also, honestly, while winning out is the surest thing -- we'd be a virtual lock in that stich -- there is a reasonable chance seven wins could get it done.

Wow, talk about being careful what you wish for ... Rutgers would be a nightmare bowl scenario for BG. That being said, I'd take it!

What, again, is the current criteria for getting into Canada by land? I know someone posted this here a few weeks ago but I'm too lazy to look it up right now. LOL.

Do you have to have a passport now? If so, I gotta think about getting some applications in the mail...thanks.

First, we need to beat EMU....then beat Buffalo....then beat TSUN. Then, we should be in a good position.

ROCK THE EAGLES

I'd rather they win the MAC and skip being plastered on the turf against Rutgers. The MAC is getting pushing into the same rut CUSA is in, where its teams are setups for other teams to beat.

That type of narrow, limited, shortsighted, fraidy cat thinking lead to the production of the Trabant....

I'd much rather have a shot at beating a BCS conference foe in a nationally televised game than be crowned King of the Teams Who Refuse to Try to Improve

I found it....

On Jan. 31, 2008, U.S. and Canadian citizens will need to present either a WHTI-compliant document or a government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license, plus proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate. DHS also proposes to begin alternative procedures for U.S. and Canadian children at that time.

With the International Bowl game being played 3 weeks before this date, I think don't think you need anything...yet. I'm not 100% positive so if someone else knows for sure, please have at it, eh!

Even now, driver's license and birth certificate make things much easier. Also, for your wife, marriage license speeds things up also, since the name on the driver's is usually different than the name on the birth certificate. Except obviously, for Marshall grads.

Freak, the FMB has been instructed to aquire legal and official copies of our birth certificates and procure (if we don't already have them) a driver's liscense. Sounds like that would be the safest way to travel.

Niz,

Thanks for the clarification. I think we will be fine...just gotta beat EMU...then Buffalo...then "Them".

LB,

Thanks for the tip as well. We'll see you in a week and a half!

GO FALCONS!

Luckily for us these things aren't terribly accurate. I have my heart set on the south.

7 wins won't cut it. There are too many things we need to happen for us to even have a chance at the East title. So, the only way we go bowling is if we win out, period.
