Central Michigan 2026 Season Preview | Win Total, MAC Odds & College Football Playoff Chances

The College Football Experience (@TCEonSGPN) on the Sports Gambling Podcast Network continues its 138 college football team preview series with the Central Michigan Chippewas 2026 Season Preview. Pick Dundee aka (@TheColbyD) & Ryan McIntyre (@Moneyline_Mac) break down the 2026 Central Michigan Chippewas roster and what to expect in the MAC this season. Can Matt Drinkall build on a 7-6 debut after arriving from Jeff Monken's Army staff? How much does returning quarterback Angel Flores, a senior transfer from NAU, raise the ceiling with 62% of the production back? Is OC Jim Chapin's group ready to climb after finishing 113th in total offense a year ago?

Can wide receivers Langston Lewis and Tommy McIntosh give Flores enough firepower to stress MAC defenses? Will Quavion Bird up front and Korver Demma at linebacker hold up a defense that returns just 29% of its production under DC Sean Cronin? What is a gameday like at Kelly/Shorts Stadium in Mount Pleasant, and is the Bird Bar & Grill really the best spot in town? How does a schedule with a New Mexico opener, a trip to Miami, and home dates against Western Michigan and Miami (OH) actually break? And where's the betting value on the Central Michigan Chippewas win total, MAC odds and College Football Playoff chances? We talk it all and more on this episode of The College Football Experience.
