Week 6 is upon us here in the wonderful world of Mid-American Conference football, or MACtion Land for short. This week features several key conference matchups, six in all, with several team's opening MAC play. Miami Central Michigan face off in a game we've dubbed "The Desperation Bowl", while UMass and WMU look to end their woeful starts against two of the conference's best in Bowling Green and Toledo. Two of the MAC's most esteemed coaches face off this afternoon in Akron, and we get a rematch of the 2012 MAC Championship game as No. 23 NIU heads out East to Kent State. Here's a full breakdown of today's action:
