    Jordan Lynch and Northern Illinois won a MAC title game that lived up to the hype.

    Now the Huskies are lobbying for a chance to play on an even bigger stage.

    "I hope we get into a BCS game," Lynch said. "We showed the country what we can do tonight, and we play our best game every week."

    Lynch ran for three touchdowns, including a 2-yarder in the second overtime, and Demetrius Stone's interception in the end zone gave Northern Illinois (No. 19 BCS, No. 21 AP) a 44-37 victory over Kent State (No. 18 BCS, No. 17 AP) in a stirring Mid-American Conference championship game Friday night.
