MAC ends bowl season 2-2 after Miami’s win

After years of struggles in bowl games the MAC ended the 2010-2011 bowl season at .500 with a 2-2 record in 4 bowl games. After a 1-1 start that featured two blowouts with NIU crushing Fresno State and Ohio getting thumped by Troy the MAC had a chance to have a solid bowl season. After Florida International upset Toledo in the Little Caesars Bowl it made Miami’s January 6 date with MTSU in the GoDaddy.com Bowl all the more important. With Sun Belt teams already 2-0 against the MAC a loss could have dropped the MAC below the Sun Belt in terms of national perception. But the RedHawks, the 2010 MAC Championship Game winners, did not disappoint as they took control in the second half en route to a 35-21 win.
