Tuesday, Nov. 7th Games
/I have to admit - I am not sure that I can get excited for tonight's two games. I know that the Bowling Green/Buffalo games have been close recently, but Bowling Green has won six straight in the series and Buffalo is currently on a four-game losing streak. The Bulls though need this to remain bowl eligible, and they play at home - so I am thnking they will win this matchup. Even so, I won't be turning this game on unless I am channel surfing.
The Akron/Miami (Ohio) game is a tad more interesting for five reasons (and I am reaching):
- The Zips are 4-1 in MAC East
- The series started in 1916 (but they only played four times from 1916 to 1992)
- Terry Bowden is the head coach for Akron
- Miami is fighting for their bowl life
- The Redhawks have good looking uniforms
Even after these reasons, it is hard to have much time vested in this game - especially when Akron proudly exclaims in their game notes, "won at least five games for five consecutive years."
Tomorrow's game between Central Michigan and Eastern Michigan will be better to watch...
