2022 MAC Football TV/Streaming Primer: Wednesday, Nov. 16

NCAA Football: Oregon at Colorado Ron Chenoy-USA TODAY Sports

It’s going to be hard to live up to the drama of Tuesday night’s games, but six teams will certainly give it their all in a pivotal weekend which could decide the postseason fates of several teams.

We get three different must-win scenarios in the three different windows, with Kent State (6 p.m.), Miami (7 p.m.) and Central Michigan (8 p.m.) all needing a win tonight to set up another must-win scenario next week.

NIU, who is already out of postseason contention, can play the role of spoiler agaisnt Miami, while WMU looks to do the same for CMU— while also taking back possession of the Victory Cannon after losing it last season.

EMU, meanwhile, seeks to make themselves an attractive option for potential bowl suitors with a win against the preseason favorite to win the MAC East.

There’s a lot to play for this Wednesday, to say the least.

Here’s the full slate of times, channels and odds below:
