2012 NCAAF Conference Previews Part 3

-Mid American Conference-

Predicted Finish
WEST
1)Western Michigan
    The Broncos return QB Alex Carder, who threw for 3800 yds and 31TD in 2011, as well as a 4 of 5 O-lineman and should win the West division easily. Helps that they avoid the top teams from the East too.
2)Northern Illinois
    NIU loses experienced QB Chandler Harnish and 6 others on offense and will rely on a good defense to be decent this year.
3)Eastern Michigan
    Coming off a 6-6 season, this team will compete as they return 9  offensive starters and boast a good running game. This team wont win the division but look for improvement.
4)Central Michigan
5)Toledo
6)Ball State

EAST
1)Ohio
    The Bobcats enter 2012 returning 9 defensive starters and QB Tyler Tettleton from a 10 win team a year ago. Tettleton will challenge WMU's Carder for best QB in the conference and can lead his team to another double digit win total.
2)Miami (OH)
    Miami is already one of Ohio's rivals and the two teams competing for the top spot will only make this years' race better. Miami returns 16 starters and included is QB Zac Dysert. Dysert threw for 3500 yards and 23 Touchdowns in 2011.
3)Bowling Green
     The Falcons were 5-7 last year but should be better as they return 17 starters.
4)Kent St
5)Buffalo
6)Akron
7)Umass

-Player of the Year-
  QB Tyler Tettleton, OHIO

-Best Conference Games-
 Ohio @ Miami (OH), Oct 27th
 NIU @ W.Michigan, Oct 27th
 E.Michigan @ Bowling Green, Oct 27th
