It’s that time of the week when the MACtion is about to kick off. Intriguing matchups litter the calendar this week, including the opening MACtion salvo with Ohio and Bowling Green, where BG can either prove they aren’t what people are saying or cement that fact. The MAC day closes with old power versus new power as NIU takes on Western Michigan in a chance for the Broncos to further prove that they are the new class of the MAC.
