What’s Going To Happen

Can Ball State do anything to turn its season around?

The Cardinals came into the season with a whole bunch of hope, and now they just want to try scoring a touchdown again after being outscored by Western Michigan and Akron by a combined score of 86-6.

Central Michigan is also trying to get things going, shocking the MAC with a win over Ohio a few weeks ago, but struggling through a 30-10 loss to Toledo. The Chippewas lost four of the last five games, but now they have to go on the road for three of the next four games.

Ball State doesn’t have a running game, it can’t seem to come up with enough breaks to generate easy points, and the passing attack doesn’t push the ball down the field.

But Central Michigan doesn’t move the ball consistently and has a problem with turnovers, too.

These two might not be going anywhere, but the Chippewas know how to take the ball away. The first team to score a few times might win.
