ESPN-Plus to re-air WMU football's 2016 MAC title game against Ohio

On Saturday, Oct. 10 at 6:30 p.m. EST, ESPN+ will be showing a re-run of the 2016 Mid-American Conference Football Championship game featuring Western Michigan and Ohio.

WMU beat the Bobcats 29-23 in that game to win its first conference title since 1988. The game also set a record attendance for a MAC title game as 45,615 fans filled Ford Field in Detroit.

The victory for the No. 13 Broncos secured its first and only perfect 13-0 regular season in program history. This would earn the Broncos a bid to the 2017 Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic against Wisconsin in which WMU eventually fell short, losing to the Badgers 24-16.
