Bowling Green, led by Eddie George, slides from sixth to ninth in the rankings, hosting Tarleton State in their opener. The heated Battle of I-75 looms for November 20th, with Toledo at home. Sacramento State joins as a football-only member, ranked 12th. The MAC title game heads to Detroit on December 5th — can Western Michigan defend, or will Miami or another team rise to the occasion?
