The Red Zone Report

In the final part of The Red Zone Report’s 2008 Mid-American Conference preview, I take a look at some of the key games that lie ahead in 2008, who some of the impact newcomers could be, and I also give my preseason all-conference picks.

Quick, raise your hand if you know who the nation’s leading returning rusher is. If you read the first part of my MAC preview the other day (or the MAC East preview), you know it, and if you’re a MAC or Kent State fan, you probably know the answer already.

For the last two seasons, Central Michigan has been the class of the MAC, as the Chippewas have gone 14-2 in conference play and won back to back MAC championships.
