Thursday Night Games

Tonight I am thinking that I will be flicking between three of the four FBS games being played today:

Toledo and Northern Illinois will battle in a critical Mid-American Conference West Division matchup.  The Rockets lead the MAC in total offense and total defense, but the Huskies only allow 18 points per game and they have won three straight in the Glass Bowl.

Eastern Michigan will need a win over Ball State to keep their slim bowl hopes alive.  They have had one of the toughest years as the Eagles have lost seven games by a total of 23 points (3 OT losses).  With a little luck they would be on top of the MAC West.

Lastly, in a game that starts at 8:00, Navy will visit Temple in Philadelphia, which has been a home away from home for the Midshipmen.  The series is tied at 6 wins a piece and quickly developing into a good conference game for the two east coast programs.

I hope that my remote has batteries enough to keep up with my flicking…
