What’s Going To Happen

It’s been a disappointing run for Ball State, with no running ability with star James Gilbert hurt, and with no offense over the last few weeks.

And then the defense picked the wrong time to take a vacation, losing the MAC opener at Western Michigan 55-3.

To be fair to the Cardinals, it’s not just Gilbert. They’re without six offensive starters including QB Riley Neal and key parts of the line and receiving corps.

Akron got by Bowling Green, and now it has a shot to be 2-0 in MAC play – but this might be it for the fun for a while. The next two games? At Western Michigan, at Toledo.

Ball State is much, much better than it showed against WMU, but it’s just too banged up. Akron might not have enough offense to be impressive, but it’ll get by at home in a bit of a war of attrition.

The defenses will look good because the offenses will sputter.
