And Ball State is the winner of the inaugural Ball Sac Bowl

I have literally been cheering for this since Sac state was announced for the MAC. 

I was also a student during the "Ball U" shirt controversy, so the Ball Sac Bowl is the icing on my cake

Given that score, I'd say that Ball Sac was a little lopsided

It is thus determined, the Ball is more important than the Sac

After all, it’s better to, um, be the gift itself, and not just the paper that’s wrapped around the gift, to put it that way…

They doubled their score. In other words, 2 balls for every sac.

Yup. 1-7 so far this season with the only win being against the well known powerhouse Mississippi Valley State. Sac was totally ready to make the jump to FBS this season. Good job Luke Wood, you are not a con man at all.

Oh also lol BallSac

Sacramento State would be a 1-7 team in the Big Sky this year. They're ass.

I was at the Beavers soccer game last Wednesday and their opponent was Sac State. The Beavers proceeded to score 8 goals and won 8-1 . Yea I think that University is cursed with Wood at the helm!

Inaugural BallSac Bowl Champions

How you can you not be romantic about baseball college football?

u/Lucario74 3d ago

The sack is purposeless without balls to hold.

u/Condom_Breaker256 3d ago

Sac State is 0.5-7.5 this season

The reason it's not 1-7 is because...I mean, come on, they beat Mississippi Valley. MVSU lost to a DII team this year.

If Ball State keeps winning like this, we might have to give Ball two Senators

u/DarkSide830 3d ago

The Ball is mightier than the sac

u/Tornadohunter24 3d ago

Always knew that the Ball was stronger than the Sac.
