Jordan Lynch is Unstoppable

You have to feel for Ball State. Despite the presence of Mr. Lynch on the opposing sideline, the Cardinals fought for the entire way in a huge MAC game only to somehow lose by 3 TDs. Lynch's play--and he completed 26-32 for 345y and 2 TDs and rushed for 123y and 2 more TDs--forced the visitors to be near perfect and for most of the game they were. But then Lynch threw a 36y TD pass to WR Da'Ron Brown with 5:49 left and soon after the Huskies defense had a 4th-and-one stop in their own territory and Ball State was going home unhappy. With the win Northern Illinois's BCS hopes remained. The Huskies are focused on not only defending their MAC crown but returning to a BCS bowl to remove the stinging memory of last year's blowout loss to Florida State in the Orange Bowl. With Lynch the Huskies are a threat to anyone. But with a game next Wednesday at Toledo the Huskies cannot look too far ahead. They would also have a MAC conference title game to play assuming they make it. And of course they are not just competing with their MAC brethren but against a Fresno State program that is neck and neck with them in a fight for one possible BCS bowl bid.
