Would seem NIU would languish in the MW, but it’s a bigger pond. Seems longer than it is when Bulls DI move was so full of hope. Quote
CaseyatBat Posted December 16, 2024 Posted December 16, 2024 A bowl game. But it's at 11:00 in the morning against a team with 10 backups including QB. Quote

In terms of team vibes, its the best bowl game out there. Let the boys have some fun. At the end of the day, with the playoffs, these other bowl games are all pretty meaningless. Go to the one that the players will have a good time. 1 Quote

I will agree that Bahamas is the best choice given what was available, but its essentially a vacation/reward and not a serious football game Edited December 16, 2024 by CaseyatBat Quote

It's a fun bowl for the players but not terribly prestigious. Doesn't take away from a great season. Just go and snuff out the Flames. Quote

Ever since the playoffs has been expanded and even just been 4 Most of the bowl games are not that serious or prestigious The only prestigious bowl games to me are the new years 6 Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl, Orange Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Peach Bowl, and Fiesta Bowl I don't think there's a difference between the meineke car Care bowl and the Bahamas bowl or the international bowl Edited December 17, 2024 by Buffalo716 Quote

Bahamas was always a low payout. But I think all MAC schools pool bowl money anyway. Quote

PromoTheRobot Posted January 5 Posted January 5 (edited) 2 hours ago, BobbyC81 said: Now, will he stick around or transfer? Dolac or Murdoch? Dolac is going into the draft. (Git'r dun, Beane!) Murdoch has at least two more seasons of eligibility. He hasn't entered the portal yet. (Only 3 UB players entered and all three played Saturday anyway, including kicker Upton Bellenfant who committed to Texas Tech next year but kicked 4 FGs and 2 XPs.) The players seem to love playing for Lembo. In fact it was the players still in touch with Shaun Dolac that convinced him to come back to UB after committing to Utah State last year. But with NIL money it's hard to keep good players. UB has an NIL fund but it's not enough to keep a player from going to a P4 program. Edited January 5 by PromoTheRobot Quote
May Day 10 Posted January 9 Posted January 9 Ogbonna went transfer portal Northern Illinois to MWC I wish UB would pull a similar move to the AAC Quote
