It’s the battle of the birds Tuesday night in Oxford, OH. Miami (OH) controls its destiny for its second MAC Championship Game appearance in two years, and the heavily-favored RedHawks hope to dispose of Bowling Green before an all-important regular season finale vs. Kent State. A win sets Miami back in bowl season — a promising response to a 1-3 start.
Meanwhile, Bowling Green was not able to generate strong midseason and late-season results after its best non-conference showing since 2015. The Falcons are officially locked out of bowl eligibility, but an upset in Oxford could set the program on the right footing heading into 2022.
