Through a series of shifts by the MAC office, that game was released from Ball State’s schedule and probably will become part of Western Michigan’s schedule. Those schools are still working on contract details.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15563149989757149700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-24044439108848377832007-03-06T19:05:00.000-08:002007-03-06T19:05:00.000-08:002 games, one day: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/ne...2 games, one day: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/news/story?id=218586682https://www.blogger.com/profile/12160805866220125234noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-51566159614282329682007-03-06T13:28:00.000-08:002007-03-06T13:28:00.000-08:00Thanks for the correction Tony.

An article in what passes for a newspaper in Bowling Green indicates that the OOC opponents for BG would come form a pool of teamms including Minnesota, Pitt, Indiana, Michigan State and Western Kentucky.<BR/><BR/>Believe me...tha fans in Bowling Green are none to happy about this and there is grumbling from others that schools may be lookig to bolt from the MAC over this and other issues.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15857498.post-22921906607987557232007-03-06T10:53:00.000-08:002007-03-06T10:53:00.000-08:00The MSU thing is backwards.
