  • Miami (OH) got beat by Akron which makes them 0-fer and Toledump got beat by mighty Eastern Michigan.  If only UConn could have beaten USPAM it would have been a perfect weekend.

  • But since we're talking about bygones, who do you root for (against) when Appy State and Georgia Southern lock up?

    Feelings run a LOT deeper about the Boonies... we ordinarily manhandled GSU, but Sparky Woods and the boys were almost always a threat.

  • Actually, my bad on Miami (OH).  They actually managed to wallop Buffalo by a whole 7 points last week.  ROTFL  

    As for I-AA, we're so far past that I don't care anymore.  Besides, I never felt the kind of animosity for any I-AA team that I felt for Miami (OH) and Toledump.

    First off - congrats to EMU for their win, you deserved it and it's nice to see a program that has lost so many close games over the past two or three years get a win in the final seconds.

    Second, Toledo sucks - period! They will not win a game the rest of the season. Toledo Tom made a terrible tactical error after the second TD to go for two-points and got burned, and then UT quickly lost momentum. The Rockets then failed miserably on the special teams and defensive areas in the final minute to lose. If Toledo played Temple or FAU or NM State or any IA team - at this moment, they would lose to each and every one of them. Toledo has no confidence and is playing very bad football. I cannot believe the incredible free fall we have just made over the past five or six weeks.

    It's time to quote "Dandy Don Meredith" - 'the party is over, it's time to turn out the lights.' You guys can hum that tune and think of my Rockets who at this moment are pathetic at best.

    For the record though (especially for those who believe I pick Toledo to win every week) I correctly picked UT to lose for the second straight week. Again – they will likely not win a game for 2006.
