Surprise, surprise. The MAC is crazy this year, and Saturdays' games could prove to advance the chaos even more. Here is the schedule for the day:
| Away | Home | Time (EST) | Streaming |
| Miami | Ball State | 2:00 | ESPN3 |
| Bowling Green | Eastern Michigan | 2:00 | ESPN3 |
| Central Michigan | Buffalo | 3:30 | ESPN3 |
| Ohio | Kent State | 7:00 | ESPN3 |
| Northern Illinois | Western Michigan | 7:00 | ESPN3 |
Bowling Green - Eastern Michigan might be the game of the day, as both teams sit at 2-1 in conference play. The Falcons and Eagles have been surprises this season, and the winner will be very happy to start the conference season 3-1.
Kent State and Ohio always have entertaining games, and tonight's game in Kent will surely be no different. Expect a high-scoring affair and a fun match-up between Tony Campbell and Jimmy Hall.
If NIU and Ball State want to be contenders this season, they need to beat Miami and Western Michigan. The RedHawks and Broncos seem to be the worst two teams in the conference, and both West Division leaders can't afford to trip up against lesser competition.
