No ties, no losses, all wins.

Here’s the last time each MAC School won every single game in a year.

Any surprises?

When was the last time your school was in the #MACtion Championship, and how did they do?

@OhioFootball broke a 56 year title drought in 2024.

The longest drought for a MAC title now belongs to @KentStFootball, dating back to 1972, followed by @EMUFB, dating back to 1989.

#MACtion Championship Throwback!

2017:

Logan Woodside guided Toledo Football to their first MAC title since 2004, with a 45-28 win over Akron. Just the second full year for Coach Candle and Toledo ended a 13 year title drought.

The Rockets finished 11-3 that season. #TeamToledo
June 2, 2025 at 4:15 AM
Today it’s Rockets versus Redhawks for the #MACtion baseball championship!

This is the first time Toledo is in the championship game in 16 years!
May 25, 2025 at 1:26 PM
The all-time record for the most combined runs in a Division I baseball game is 62, set on May 13, 1968, in a 33-29 Denver win over Air Force. 

16 runs in two innings between Toledo-BGSU today (so far). The squads are on pace to break this before we get out of the eighth inning.
