Caylin Newton, the younger brother of Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, is adamant that the Bison are not a “tune-up” for Ohio’s Mid-American Conference season. “The coach said we’re a tune-up game. I take that personal. We’re not anybody’s tune-up,” said Newton, referring to Bobcats coach Frank Solich’s remarks in an interview last week.

Bison coach Mike London made sure to post the interview quotes in the office and team room (click web address below for full article).

I thought Frank Solich was smarter than that. His comment almost caused his team to lose to Howard as the Bison came into the game wanting to prove him wrong. Howard gave Ohio all they could handle losing 38-32 at Peden Stadium. Perhaps Solich was just thinking out loud but his carelessness could have been costly. Ohio's next game is at Virginia on 9/15.
