GRR: Mid-American Conference
Don't look now but University of Cincinnati is 3-1 in the MAC.
In a conference that looks to be pretty competitive even including the teams who haven't won games, there does appear to be an almighty race for playoff spots. Louisville (3-0) and Bowling Green (3-0), are certainly secure (and they meet up October 21), and Western Michigan is still around at 2-1.
Louisville remains atop the MAC after another convincing victory this weekend, shutting out Ohio 51-0.
The Cardinals have yet to allow a try in conference play this season, having given up just three penalty goals while scoring 196 points in three games.
Several newer players got some time against Ohio and the defensive effort was still impressive.
Bowling Green took a big step in the Mid-American Conference with a 27-15 defeat over Western Michigan Saturday.
Both teams are relatively young, but it seems as if WMU is a little bit less experienced, and it certainly seemed apparent that if the Broncos would have been a bit tidier in their connections, they would have caused the Falcons some more problems.
Louisville, Bowling Green, and Western Michigan are all at 2-0 now in the DIAA MAC Conference after all won over the weekend.
WMU won comfortably over Ohio 56-7 to move to 2-0, while Bowling Green got by Dayton 64-8. This sets up a clash between these two longtime rivals on Saturday.
Louisville, meanwhile, faced an improving Cincinnati and came away with a dominant 77-3 win.
Louisville defeated Bowling Green in the final of the Mid American Conference 7s over the weekend.
Many of the knockout games were close, with Louisville edging Pitt 20-14 in the semis. Bowling Green won one of the rare lopsided games, taking their semi 40-7 over Ohio University.
