Maybe it's my Midwestern bias but I love me some MACtion! It like the poor mans B1G, only most of their teams could beat our bottom two. I love watching 0-2 star recruits ball out!

Man I wish they'd quit using CBSSN that isn't part of Vue...Sling either I don't think?  Would have loved to watched Toledo tonight.  Akron vs Buffalo it is!

MSU had a pick-six, so their offense actually scored 33.  Also, another score came on a pass that hit a NW defender in the hands and bounced to an MSU player for a long TD.  So yeah, NW's defense might not be awesome, but that scoreline was a bit fluky.

Pitt's offense decided to start in meltdown mode apparently, so while I don't think there's a really good efficiency metric for that, I would think that it is definitely efficient in that it cuts outs any hope that Pitt will take advantage of early opportunities in this game.

A QB from my old high school in ohio, perennial door-mat in a conference also called the MAC, led them to their first state title ever last year. He just committed to Toledo. I'm super happy for him. Can't wait to watch that kid play on random weeknights.

Kalamazoo Stout here, and getting ready to turn on some MACtion!  I'm still pissed about the Toledo War!  That should be our city, dammit!  (although I do love the UP).

Anyone have some suggestions for some good stouts or porters to pick up for the weekend?
