Not sure if anyone else is feeling it.

Akron is one of the coldest teams in the MAC at the moment. This week Ohio almost tied up CMU after a terrible first half. The chances of a team recovering from a half down 17-3 are very slim so to be close to doing so in the fourth shows grit. Its too good of a senior class to see a loss here.

The best poll ever on Bobcatattack. Nobody despises to lose more than I do. That's got me into trouble over the years, but it also made a man of mediocre ability into a pretty good coach.

WMU is the standard for the MAC. My hope is that Ohio gets a nice share of the WMU cash from their bowl game.

Plus the $ going to the MAC schools would be good.

There they would play SDSU while WMU played Ohio (hopefully). If both WMU and Boise St. claim conference titles I think Boise St. will finish ahead of WMU.

Boise State is one spot ahead of Western Michigan in the rankings right now, so you're probably right. I'll be rooting for Wyoming so that it won't matter.

A win over a team that is unbeaten in Pac 12 play is what is making up for the Wyoming loss for Boise St. WMU might jump them back if that holds up and they get a win over Toledo next week which will add to the resume a bit more than a Boise St. win over a pretty decent Air Force team. Wyoming is down four in the fourth to SDSU. If that holds up I think it puts WMU in serious jeopardy. Not only does it give Boise St. the lead in the division but it means they will play a 1-loss SDSU team in the title game. Adding Ohio and a MAC title to the resume while Boise adds SDSU and a MWC title (MWC is probably mot regarded by the committee better than the MAC by as much as most casual fans probably expect), IMO, is still not going to work out in WMU's favor. They need to root for Air Force next week. Of course, as we all hope, Ohio could make all of this moot with an upset.

Boise State is one spot ahead of Western Michigan in the rankings right now, so you're probably right. I'll be rooting for Wyoming so that it won't matter. Wyoming gave up a Hail Mary touchdown but stopped a San Diego State two-point conversion to hold on for a big win. A Wyoming win next week against New Mexico would put them in the Mount West title game and not Boise State, meaning Boise State could not get the at-large choice.

This brings up a valid point, if Ohio takes care of business and makes it to Detroit, is WMU or Toledo a preferable match up?

Toledo and Ohio (playing up to our potential). Going back to back against the two top teams in the conference seems to be a recipe for an upset.
