To make me feel better, let's start the clock on the 2023 season. Here are the 12 MAC teams' opening game for next year (as of right now, anyway!).

Akron at Temple
Ball State at Kentucky
Bowling Green at Liberty
Buffalo at Wisconsin
Central Michigan at Michigan State
Howard at Eastern Michigan
Kent State at UCF
Miami at Miami
Northern Illinois at Boston College
LIU at Ohio
Toledo at Illinois
Saint Francis at Western Michigan

Discuss!

I’m picking Miami to beat Miami.

I am waiting on the spread before I decide whether to bet on Miami in that game. I can easily see Miami failing to cover.

I'm sure Bielema is trying to get out of that game with Toledo.

The MAC will end up with the best bowl win pct. at .667 !!

Correct. Neither B1G or Pac-12 (Rose Bowl teams) or SEC (Georgia) or B12 (TCU) in the NC game can equal/surpass the Might MAC.

The commish must be smiling from ear to ear.

The critical game was Ohio's big win last week. Thank you, Ohio.

Lol let's pump the breaks a bit. We also played the easiest opponents. 4-2 is nice but not like we played all good g5 programs.

Like any coach will say...we can only control the opponents on our schedule. We are the Bowl Challenge Champs!!! Way to go MAC!!!!

And the two we lost were squeakers. Therefore, the MAC is the most powerful conference in the nation. They should have to change it so the MAC Champs get an automatic bid to the 4-team playoff. What's fair is fair.

Nor did we have two teams in the CFP.

Not our fault the CFP are too scared to invite the best conference to play there. Imagine inviting two schools from the same conference just to see them both lose in the semifinals? Embarrassing!

Should have invited the other blue and gold team 45 mins from Detroit, and THE OHIO UNIVERSITY instead...

I’ll take that bet and pick Miami to beat Miami.

Surely you're kidding? Miami is going to curbstomp Miami.

For Sure! We could have played some 6-6 Power Five teams with a whole lot of starters sitting out and that would have been more impressive? Really? Beating a 7-5 Kentucky without their QB and others sitting out would be a greater accomplishment? Really?

No need for the foot to get anywhere near the brake pedal. Just a GREAT year!
