GAME Good evening bitches...

Damn...just seeing that snow on the field is making me cold...

Northern Illinois @ Central Michigan...it's 7-3 Central at end of 1st
 
I am tuning in... Gotta see the rest of the rankings show.
 
Chips hit a 35yd FG...now 10-3 just starting 2nd quarter
 
Its Halloween. Unless one of these two teams kills the other, its not a good game. We need a bloodbath on Halloween.

That'll be the other game if that's what you want to see
 
CMU with a 46 yard TD run...NIU appears to be employing the tackling optional D scheme so far in this game... 17-3 Chippewas
 
Watching both games in multi view. Damn, I miss snow.
 
After his 7th year you would like to believe that Lombardi would improve, no?
 
Question for the masses:

Would you feel differently about watching these MAC games (or others of this ilk) if they were turned these schools teams into “minor league” teams for the P5 schools?

For example Toledo/Buffalo would be funded by say.. Michigan State and Syracuse? Players being developed for a possible chance to play for those schools while also competing for their own championship(s) at that level?
Maybe have the bigger programs logo on a corner of the helmet ect. ?

One coach hypothesized that something similar would be the future of FCS level programs so.. who knows really?
 
Well Central Michigan has ripped this open. Let's see if Toledo will be handed their first loss.
 
Chips get another TD....24-3 and this might get uglier as Northern doesn't appear to want to be there

The part I want to see is the G5 totally break off and have their own bowls, playoff, and national title.

Never thought about it, but these kids usually get 4 or 5 years in school. I don't think a "minors" would really be a benefit as even the biggest athletic department budgets are stretched out, so putting a larger outlay on it probably wouldn't be seen as a positive.

You & me both brother, that would be a heckuva lot of fun added to the CFB season or, as I’ve argued, play their season in the Spring beginning weekend after final 4 weekend and finishing July 4th weekend.
I for one would love that as we just don’t have enough time to really see/watch those teams when They compete in the fall with the other schools and the NFL for attention.
 
It's now a serious snow storm...cool!!!
 
Damn, that snow is pissing me off. If it was doing that here, we would miss school the rest of the week.
 
I feel bad for these teams. Stands are practically empty.

It's awesome...can't see any part of the field...I hope it continues

I know right. I am watching to see how deep it gets. Both games are pretty much over.
