The MAC doesn't do 2 year cycles with flipped-flopping home games. The MAC schedule has no rhyme or reason.

MAC schedules are designed around always giving Buffalo the hardest schedule possible, so you never really know from year to year who will be on your schedule.

I don't see how you can argue that the MAC doesn't stack the schedules in the good teams favor. There is some pretty clear evidence, as shown in a previous thread.

I agree, was just being sarcastic. But i dont necessarily have a problem with it either as long as buffalo gets the same sweet schedule once they have a good season. To me its no different than the top 2 bball seeds getting double byes to make sure the best MAC teams are representing in post-season.

Not true. Only the NIU game is away. They have Ball St. at home.

Well we drew CMU and WMU in 2009, a year after our MAC title game. We were #2 that year in the preseason media poll and got 1/2 from the west.
