It looked like the Bulls (11-8, 4-4 MAC) were losing control of their season just one week ago. They started the year strong with big non-conference wins and won their first two conference games, but the team soon came under hard times losing four straight conference games.
The Bulls’ chances to improve didn’t seem high as they had tough matchups this past weekend. First, against the Northern Illinois Huskies (5-18, 4-4 MAC) coming in on a three- game winning streak and the Western Michigan Broncos (12-7, 5-3 MAC) who were first in the MAC west division going in.
