Mid-American Conference action kicks off this week, with the Central Michigan Chippewas (2-1) hosting the Miami-Ohio RedHawks (1-2). In the last ten years, the Chippewas and RedHawks have met six times, with Central Michigan winning four of those games.
The only Miami that matters may have lost two games, but each loss was quite close. Miami almost came back to beat the Marshall Thundering Herd in week one, led by a Gus Ragland passing attack. Unfortunately, the RedHawks came up five points short against the Thundering Herd. In week two, Miami dominated Austin Peay with a mixed offense and tight defense.
