When Central Michigan beat Oklahoma State on one of those unfathomable, end-of-the-game-Hail-Mary-pass-with-a-lateral-and-desperate-lunge-into-the-endzone-that-shouldn’t-have-happened-because-the-refs-messed-up plays, my first thought was this is going to help UNLV.

The Rebels, as more incredulity would have it, will travel to Michigan on Saturday to play the miracle makers from Mount Pleasant.
