Central Michigan- Ball State Preview. Upset Alert! Upset Alert! Upset Alert! Upset Alert! Upset Alert! Upset Alert!

While most college football is played on Saturday's, some of the smaller conferences play on the weekdays. Most of these games are just a way to get T.V. viewers and gain school popularity for smaller schools. But not on Wednesday when the Central Michigan, the unstoppable force in the MAC, takes on Ball State, the Undefeated BCS hopefuls. Although many of these "BCS Busters" have very easy schedules, (which is why a couple go undefeated each year) every once in a while theirs a tough game on their schedule that will show America if they're ready to go to a major BCS bowl or not. Well right now, Ball State's on trial. They're coming into this game with the record of 10-0 for the first time in school history, have all the confidence in the world, and are expecting to roll right through the rest of the season untouched. But not if Central Michigan QB, Dan LeFevour has to say something about it. Dan has 18 total TD's this season even though he's missed two games because of a leg injury and has played with the injury the last couple of games. Because of his bad leg, he lacks the stats that he had last year, almost matching Tim Tebow's exactly, but he's preparing and ready to play on Wednesday against Ball State. I think that possession of the football will be key if Central Michigan wants to win on Wednesday. Ball State has an explosive offense and have many big plays to offer, so if Central can hold on to the ball, and not turn the ball over then I think that they can very well win this football game. My prediction right now is Central Michigan pulls of the huge upset in Overtime, 37-34. Go Chippewa's!
