2018 MAC Football Game Preview: Monmouth Hawks at Eastern Michigan Eagles

Well, it is the moment you have been waiting for, the return of college football. In Ypsilanti, it returns on Friday night as the Monmouth Hawks travel to Rynearson Stadium to face the Eastern Michigan Eagles. This is the first meeting of the two teams and on paper it looks like it could be a good matchup.

The Monmouth Hawks are an FCS team in the Big South Division. They are coached by Kevin Callahan, who has a 144-118 overall record in his tenure as the only coach in Hawks history. Their football program started in 1993 and their first points were scored on a defensive interception of a 2-point conversion.
