I love the job that Pete Lembo is doing at Ball State, and I could see him ending up with a Big Ten job some day. (Then again, he's succeeded in three different regions already -- at Lehigh, Elon, and BSU -- so perhaps limiting him to the Big Ten is a bad idea.) And when I saw that Ball State was up 20-3 early in this one, I stopped tracking it. Mistake. Ball State's pretty decent, but the Cardinals aren't good enough to overcome five turnovers and a two-touchdown turnover disadvantage on the road. And wow, did the BSU offense fold up shop late.
