Skydome, er Rogers Centre...Host of Next MAC Bowl game?
More reliable than normal rumors on message boards say that the MAC should have a third bowl bid in the hopper next year. I believe these are reliable because they come from someone with a semi-journalistic bearing (Vandelay sports) and because they reflect things we have heard before from official sources. The word is, tie in with Big East in Toronto, see above.
There's also some talk of a fourth bowl, but that's a lot less likely.
This is great for the MAC. Within memory, we struggled to have one bowl bid--in fact, we spent a little time in the 70's without a bowl game. The MAC leadership has done a great job putting this together, and they deserve huge credit.
For the record, if BG makes the Toronto Bowl, we will go. We're not afraid of the cold, and Toronto is an awesome city.
Let's hope it pans out.

We can only hope. The trick is getting past the NCAA, but I have to think they will. Toronto will be a great city for a game, but it continues to make the Motor City Bowl look like a punishment for success.
