I had Miami winning the Mac.

Richard and Godfrey both had Toledo winning the Mac.

In reality, nobody was right.

Western Michigan beat Miami, so I was at least close in this conference.

I think we all agree or would acknowledge that the Mac is the most annually hard to figure out league, especially now because of portaling.

And Western Michigan was not on any of our books at all to be the best team in this conference.

Which was to Miami, yes.

Yeah, Western Michigan kind of had a wrecking crew defensively.

They had one player in the Dom Tucker edge rusher who had 14 and a half sacks to tie with David Bailey for the national lead.

And, you know, does that mean that they'll be able to do this next year, especially with the coordinator change?

Probably not.

But it is very impressive to go from 120th to 42nd in defensive SP plus.

Let's talk about the team that you both picked Toledo.

Every year, I think Toledo should win the MAAC.

They should be the favorite in the MAAC.

They have the best financial foundation or one of the top two or three at worst in the MAAC.

I would also put Miami up there.

And yet it didn't work out kind of on tiebreaker because Godfrey, you mentioned that glut of six and two teams.

And now Jason Candle is at Toledo.

they've made a very interesting hire Mike Jacobs from Mercer to come and replace him.
