It’s a matchup borne out of money and a desire for an easy win. You know it, I know it, both teams probably know it. No, Northwestern isn’t exactly national championship material, [...] Sat, 12 Sep 2009 11:00:42 -0500 http://www.yardbarker.com/all_sports/article_external/Big_Ten_Scorekeepers_Take_Pity_On_EMU_Eagles/1156649 http://www.yardbarker.com/all_sports/article_external/Big_Ten_Scorekeepers_Take_Pity_On_EMU_Eagles/1156649 Welcome everybody to another edition of the MAC-Attack.

I think it's great that we're 3-1, and that's really the best we could've hoped for in the first four weeks of our schedule. I think it's great that we just put up 51 points on Eastern Michigan. I think it's great that every College Park resident gets 12 free toppings on their pizza at Papa John's. But just look on the schedule: Next up, Clemson. I hope that name makes you wince.

Da'Rel Scott, a sophomore with blazing speed, had been a hero against Boston College the year before, but would he be able to do it with a full load of carries? Although it was not a foolish question given the lack of evidence, it does seem rather fooli...

One week ago, let us recall that we were rehashing the Terps latest disappointing letdown against MIDDLE TENNESSEE STATE. And today we beat... a No. 23-ranked Cal? WHAAAAAAAAAA?!?!?!?! I don't know. Nobody knows. Not even the Schmuck. I'm not even going to pretend to understand how different this team looked today. I suppose you could attribute some of that to jet lag. You could say that Cal couldn't play defense. But you have to give th...
