The 2016 MAC Championship Game in Pictures

Last night was the first time that I’ve been to the MAC Championship game.

I never really had a reason to go before last night, given the team that I follow. I figured that pictures from the game would be pretty cool and so I asked for and received a field pass through Hustle Belt.

To be honest, I was hoping that it would be a boring game. The hope was that Western Michigan would blow the Bobcats away to mak a more convincing case for the bigger New Year’s Six picture. Anyway, it was an exciting game with a strange ebb and flow; WMU lead for the whole game, but Ohio never showed signs of stopping until the literal final seconds.

Anyway, congratulations to the Western Michigan Broncos and good luck in whatever bowl you end up in.
