No Ball State either. I will let you put the rest of the joke together from there. 😄

Great, two MACtion midweek home games again.  Gotta love it.

Hopefully air travel sanity will return by then.

What's most interesting is that EMU and Sac State will be playing week 0. I imagine that was the only way the schedule makers could probably make things work given their late add.

Fair.  The MAC has some work to do on the next TV deal, because the dollars they're getting for this midweek stuff can only barely offset the losses from this kind of schedule.

Hey that would be like 5% of the total attendance that day!

The work the AD's office did to get 8000ish there for the midweek Kent game gives me hope that...despite this awful schedule...those numbrs will imrpove this year.

Whenever a MAC team doesn't have to play Sac State, that season should be referred to as a gelding.

I think you're more optimistic than me on how many fans would show up on a cold, rainy Saturday in November to watch a 3-6 Zips team.

Help me out here. Are the last two games optional to be on a week night or Saturday?

No.  They're both Tuesday.

Well yeah, I'm also hoping the team continues to improve now that they can practice fully.

What if I offered you a 4-5 Zips team!

If we want to get middle school attendance, how about a 6-7 one with a bowl loss?
