It's a classic game of strength vs strength and weakness vs weakness when Western Michigan hosts Northern Illinois. The Huskie offense is the strength of their team and the Broncos' defense leads their team. The winner of that battle has the upper hand in this matchup. When the Broncos have the ball, both teams have the opportunity to look…

Let's get into this week's rankings: The Zips still can't stop losing, so they're still at the bottom of the rankings. This time around, they suffered at the hands of the Miami RedHawks and their very stout defense. To their credit they were able to get yards on Miami, but ultimately made too many mistakes and couldn't convert opportunities into…

Bowling Green sits at 3-1, sitting behind both Ohio and Buffalo at third int he MAC East with a game in hand coming into Wednesday night's contest against the Broncos.

The Northern Illinois Huskies will host the Central Michigan Chippewas on Wednesday night in each team's return to Midweek # MACtion. Each team should be nice and rested, last playing ten days ago on October 22nd. The season hasn't gone as either team had planned, with both squads entering the game at 2-6 overall and just 1-3 in conference play.…

This was not the position Central Michigan (1-5, 0-2 MAC West) expected to be in at his point in the season when looking at the 2022 calendar prior to the start of the year, but it's the position they're in, needing a win to stop the bleeding against a historically-vulnerable Akron (1-5, 0-2 MAC East) squad on the road to keep their hopes of being…

It couldn't have been any closer. The fate of the MAC East came down to one final play - in overtime. With Kent State ahead 48-47 following the first Miami (OH) touchdown of the extra period, the RedHawks figured they would trust their offense in the old-fashioned shootout. Quarterback Brett Gabbert looked for his favorite target Jack Sorenson on a…

Akron (1-4, 0-1 MAC East) travels to Ohio (2-3, 0-1 MAC East) to see who will get back to even on the conference slate. Both squads are coming off a close loss in the conference opener, a game either could have won had they had a play or two gone differently. Such is life in the MAC. The Zips lost to Bowling Green 31-28 on the backs of a 3-1…

This game features a couple of squads looking to build on week one successes, as the Bobcats (1-0, 0-0 MAC) travel to Happy Valley to take on the Nittany Lions (1-0, 1-0 B1G). The last time these teams met, September 1, 2012, Ohio stunned Penn State 24-14 on the strength of a 21-0 run in the second half. Ohio went on to win its first seven in a row…

The Toledo Rockets (2-2) are set to play host to the Central Michigan Chippewas (1-3) on Saturday in a MAC play opener for both squads, as both teams look to shake off slow starts from the non-conference season. This has been a date circled on the calendar for "intriguing MAC games" since it was announced earlier this year. This CMU/Toledo game,…

The Bowling Green Falcons (1-3) and Akron Zips (1-3) meet up to start the conference season after a tough non-conference slate which put both teams in the hole early.

The Northern Illinois Huskies and Ball State Cardinals will meet this Saturday in their annual rivalry game, with the winner taking home the Bronze Stalk Trophy. Northern Illinois (1-3, 0-0 MAC), will be looking to snap a three lame losing streak after playing to SEC teams, losing their starting quarterback, and narrowly falling to a…

Western Michigan plays the late #MACtion game in Week 4 of the 2022 season, emulating Eastern Michigan's trip to Tempe last week to beat Arizona State. A win against San José State wouldn't be as impressive, but a road win is still a win. Last week, Western Michigan lost to Pitt 34-13, and it was worse than the 21-point spread suggests. The Broncos…

It's the final game of the non-conference season for the Central Michigan Chippewas (1-2), who are trying to shake off a slow start with a major upset to gain momentum into the MAC season, traveling to Happy Valley to take on the Penn State Nittany Lions (3-0) in a noon matchup on Saturday. The Chips were a dark horse favorite to make a run at the…

Bowling Green needed to make a statement. After falling in seven overtimes to an FCS school in their home opener, the Falcons responded in remarkable fashion.

The Northern Illinois Huskies have another difficult test ahead of them as they travel to Lexington, Kentucky to take on the Kentucky Wildcats, who are currently ranked eighth in the NCAA. For NIU, it will be their second straight game against an SEC opponent after falling 38-28 last week to Vanderbilt. The Huskies had a 28-14 lead midway through…

Last season, Western Michigan beat the Pittsburgh Panthers, the eventual ACC champions, 44-41 at Heinz Field. Tim Lester got his best win during his tenure in Kalamazoo and conversations about a ranked WMU were out there. Tim Lester credited the win to his experience as the offensive coordinator at Syracuse. His post-game comments about the Pitt…

The Northern Illinois Huskies welcome the Vanderbilt Commodores to Huskie Stadium this weekend. It is the second time Vanderbilt has traveled to DeKalb. However, it's been nearly 25 years since Vandy last made the trip up to Illinois, as they claimed a 17-7 victory over the Huskies on October 11th, 1997. Both teams are coming off losses last week,…

The Northern Illinois Huskies start their 2022 campaign on Thursday evening and will look to build off their success from last season.

Year seven of the Jason Candle era is underway at Toledo, and as usual, the Rockets begin the 2022 season with high expectations.
