And a little mid-week MAC teaser action:

EMUs have a bad record but not a horrible team by any stretch AND Miami,OH has been resurgent of late!

EMU blasted 63-27 at Arkansas last week. But this ain't the SEC and the Eagles lead the MAC and rank fourth in the nation in pass defense (146.0 ypg) and 22nd in the nation in time of possession (31:49). The Huskies rank 15th in the nation in rush offense (206.0 ypg) and 22nd in rush defense (105.4 ypg). NIU ranks second in the nation in red zone defense (63%) and 24th in the nation in scoring defense (18.1 ppg), but they barely got by a horrible Akron team last week......Will the Huskies be interested since they are 3-1 in the West and have Ball St., Ohio (4-1) and CMU (5-0) after the 0-4 EMUs.

Meanwhile, it will be interesting to see how Temple plays as a top tier team versus playing as an also ran, while Miami continues to see great improvement every week . Miami QB Zac Dysert tossed for 344 yards last week vs. Toledo which ranks 10th on the school’s single-game passing yards list. The Redhawks also scored 24 points in the first half, the most in one half since Oct. of 2007. Temple’s Bernard Pierce is third in the nation in rushing (129.1 ypg) and tied for 23rd in scoring with 11 touchdowns for 66 points (8.3 ppg), while the Owls defense ranks 22nd in the nation in total defense (311.1 ypg). Much the same story as the EMU/NIU game. Miami,OH is 1-4 in MAC play and have a tough road ahead with finishes against BG and Buffalo, while Temple may be looking ahead to more formidable opponents in Kent and Ohio ahead......both trailing the the 4-0 Owls at 4-1 each in the MAC East.
