Inside loop Division

BGSU
Toledo
Akron
KSU
EMU
WMU
CMU

:chair:

MAC East
1) Temple
2) Buffalo
3) Akron
4) Kent State
5) Ohio
6) Miami
7) Bowling Green

MAC West
1) CMU
2) EMU
3) WMU
4) Toledo
5) NIU
6) Ball State
7) WKU

I thought about this before ... I'd try:

NORTH
NIU
Toledo
Buffalo
Temple
CMU
EMU
WMU

SOUTH
Ohio U
BGSU
Akron
Kent State
Miami
WKU
Ball State

It breaks up Toledo and BGSU into different divisions, but is that a big rivalry? They could still play every year. I guess you could switch BGSU and NIU and not really affect things that much?

Wouldn't be surprised to see Temple go to the East and WKU to the West. However, I also wouldn't mind this:

Akron
Buffalo
Kent State
Ohio
Miami
Temple
WKU


Toledo
WMU
EMU
CMU
BGSU
NIU
Ball State


Only problem with this is that Buffalo to WKU and Temple to WKU is awfully far to be in the same division.

Toledo/BGSU is arguably the biggest rivaly in the MAC......definitely one of the top 3 rivalries in the MAC. Anyway, BG is moving to the East division this fall so we will be in opposite divisions. We will still play every year though. Our rivalry dates back to 1919 in football.

You have a lot to learn.

I think those are good divisions.

Bowling Green, from the sounds of things, prefers the east.

Frankly, I just wish we could pick one and stick with it for a while.

South/North would be very doable with Temple and WKU.

South
West Kensuky
Ball
Biff State
Ohio
Temple
Akron
Kent

North
NIU
Michigan East
Michigan West
Michigan Middle
Bowling G.
Toledo
Buffalo Wings.

I hope WKU lands in the West division, which would make the most sense. I'd see all of our football road games against them, as I have relatives in Nashville (1.5 hour drive away).

I don't think you can have NIU/Toledo/BGSU in the same divison it overloads one divison.
