This would be a great win, arguably the biggest in program history, for the EMU program if they can get it! 

Only 8:00 played thus far, but they are the better team to this point.

lmfao what if they hire him and take up the The Factory motif? 

EMU takes the field by hitting a breakable brick wall with sledgehammers.

My son won a punt, pass and kick contest at EMU and was able to break down the wall before one of their home games. He said it is a pretty cool experience.

There's a more direct Michigan angle to this.  I believe that the now-former EMU athletic director who hired this coach is Heather Lyke, class of around 92 and a softball player for Hutch.  Last I knew, she had moved to Pitt, and may still be there.

I'll never be one who says "there are too many Bowl games!!!"  This game and last Friday's Kent State vs Utah State were not necessarily good games, but they were still both entertaining and memorable in their own way.

I’m willing to bet that the people at Pitt who hired Mr. 60 Minutes of Necessary Roughness didn’t envision that in year five they’d be struggling to beat a longtime MAC doormat in the Quicklane Bowl.
