* Toledo still has the best hand

* Miami is poised to contend (again) after getting portal-raided (again)

* Buffalo is in a great place after the first year of Pete Lembo

* Ohio defends its first MAC championship in decades and enters the season with one of the most fun QBs in college football, Parker Navarro

* NIU loses pretty much everything ahead of its last year in the conference

* Eastern Michigan has a great returning receiver, and what else?

* Bowling Green brings on Eddie George in one of most interesting coach moves of the year

* UMass returns to the MAC after a decade away … and we find ourselves more optimistic about the Minutemen than we’ve ever been

* Western Michigan might have this year’s Harold Fannin Jr.

* Central Michigan is doing something different with new coach Matt Drinkall, and that’s all you can ask

* Same for Ball State under new hire Mike Uremovich
