Welcome to the Addison Recorder‘s football Pick ‘Em column. Each week Alex and a guest writer will predict the outcome of the most intriguing games on the slate. He will try to be as expert as possible, but we make no guarantees for his guests.

Bowling Green Falcons MAC Champs

My folks paid thousands of dollars to subsidize this in my time at BGSU.

Northern Illinois vs Bowling Green

The rematch in the MAC Championship is a good place to start. Two years ago, North Illinois managed to run all the way to the Orange Bowl after winning this game.
