MUNCIE, Ind. — The wait it over. Ball State football returns tonight at Scheumann Stadium.
The 2021-22 season opens up as one of the most highly anticipated seasons in BSU football history. After winning a Mid-American Conference championship and program's first bowl game last year, the Cardinals come into this season favored to win the MAC by both the media and the coaches.
As a result, the Cardinals likely will be favored to win a fair number of their games, including against its Week 1 Football Championship Subdivision opponent Western Illinois, a team three of Ball State's coaches are more than familiar with.
