The Mid-American Conference doesn't look as strong as past years, if the first week is any indicator. Northern Illinois defeated Iowa for the first time in school history, serving as the shining moment for the conference.
Bowling Green's defense looks solid again, perhaps becoming the best defense in the conference. BGSU's win over Tulsa was impressive in many fashions, with all three phases playing solid.
Kent State struggled in its opener, barely beating Liberty due to a fourth-quarter comeback. Injuries became a factor for several MAC teams, with KSU's Dri Archer limited to just a few plays after suffering an ankle injury in the first series. He's expected back for next week's key contest with Bowling Green (see link).
