Oh...just give them a chance, they think that makes for good football. Wait till ASU meets one of the MAC schools in the Godaddy. They'll get a quick dosage of reality of what a good defense is.

Toledo has moved the football well against everybody they played including Boise State, Ohio State, and Temple-all better defenses than Arkansas State. Arkansas State's NCAA Stat SOS is #93, Toledo's is #41.
NIU blew out Fresno State in their Bowl game last season. The Huskies' OL has everybody back this season. They were rated as the #4 OL unit in the nation by Phil Steele's "2011 College Football Preview".

I agree that NIU is good, & likely the the best team in the MAC, but the BCS takes into account SOS, so there's that. I think stAte will play NIU in the Godaddy.com bowl.

I think NIU would prefer a spot in Detroit if a Big Ten teams gets in as it would most likely be Northwestern. That would be the preferred matchup for most fans over Go Daddy.
