Rutgers vs. Ball State in the Motor City Bowl?

Posted by ESPN.com's Brian Bennett

Tom Luicci has a very interesting story on The Star-Ledger's Web site that says Rutgers might be looking at a date with undefeated Ball State in the Motor City Bowl if things can be arranged.

Ken Hoffman, who's the executive director of both the Big East-affiliated International Bowl and the Motor City Bowl, tells Luicci that he could take Rutgers for the International and then swap the Scarlet Knights to Detroit to play Ball State. The two teams played in last year's International Bowl, with Rutgers winning 52-30. But it would be an intriguing rematch this year because Ball State will be 13-0 if it wins the MAC title game, while Rutgers will have won six straight if it beats Louisville tonight.

The deal would require the approval of the Football Bowl Association, and of course both teams have to win their games this week. But if it works out, this is a far, far more appealing prospect for Scarlet Knights fans than going to the Papajohns.com Bowl in Birmingham.
