At the beginning of the season, there were two trendy picks to win the Mid-American Conference, and both will open their MAC season today when the Miami RedHawks travel to Mount Pleasant to take on the Central Michigan Chippewas.
For the Miami-Ohio Redhawks, this game is an opportunity to bounce back after a demoralizing loss last week to the Cincinnati Bearcats. The late-game mistakes and mismanagement left a fanbase asking some very tough questions about the possibility of this team being one that’s capable of contending for a conference title or one that’s going to end up another “wait until next year” squad.
