The University of Akron football team’s chances to win a Mid-American Conference game this season are dwindling, and UA would need to pull off a major upset to accomplish the feat against MAC heavyweight Western Michigan.
A week ago, Akron placed the Ohio Bobcats on upset alert by seizing a lead in the fourth quarter, yet the Zips failed to finish and lost 28-20. With three games remaining, UA hopes to break through.
