EPISODE 34
Way to go Huskies!
NIU pulled off a Power 5 upset over Georgia Tech which was sealed by a gutsy 2-point conversion in the final seconds of regulation to avoid overtime. It’s the first big win of Thomas Hammock’s career, and gives his many, many freshmen a memory that they’ll always be able to look back on.
No other MAC team pulled off a P5 upset in Week 1, and nobody had the embarrassing loss to a visiting FCS team. But Ball State almost became that embarrassed team against Western Illinois.

- Buffalo 69, Wagner 7
- Ball State 31, WIU 21
- Tennessee 38, BGSU 6
