Georgia football vs MAC

The Mid-American Conference is home to what’s known as MACtion. Georgia has played less than half the teams in this conference.

Ohio Bobcats: Ohio has been playing football since 1894 and has been a member of the MAC since 1953. You’d think in all those years Georgia would have met up with them at least once, but it hasn’t happened.

Bowling Green Falcons: Another team that has been around a while, with the program starting in 1919 and MAC membership in 1952. This would probably be a fun game to see eventually.

Akron Zips: While Akron’s program did begin in 1891, it didn’t move into an FBS conference until 1992. Doubtful we see them appear on Georgia’s schedule anytime soon.

Toledo Rockets: The Rockets program took off in 1917 and they joined the MAC in 1952. Much like Akron, there probably hasn’t been much fan or administrator interest in scheduling this game.

Eastern Michigan Eagles: The Eagles began play as an Independent in 1891 and went back and forth between smaller divisions and Independent play until 1976 when they joined the MAC. Distance and other factors come into play here.

Western Michigan Broncos: Same as Eastern Michigan above, a program with a long history in both lower divisions and FBS, but no real reason to schedule Georgia.
