North Mac Football Schedule 2016: The Rise of CMU

In recent years, the Central Michigan University (CMU) football team has consistently produced breakout players who go on to make a significant impact on the field. In 2020, one such player was defensive end Mohammed Diallo, a Canadian from Toronto, Ontario. Prior to transferring to Texas A&M in 2018 and then CMU for his final two years, Diallo started his college career at Arizona Western C.C.

Diallo's impressive performance earned him First Team All-MAC honors, recording 9.5 tackles for loss (second-best in the MAC) and three sacks in just four games played. He is now playing in the Canadian Football League (CFL).

CMU has a reputation for consistently finding new talent to stand out each year. In fact, despite experiencing their lowest point in 2018 with a record of 1-11, the team's defense has not been terrible over the years.

In preparation for the upcoming season, CMU is looking strong, with an SP+ preseason rank of 82 (78 offense, 82 defense). Last year, they finished with an impressive 8-6 record after winning the MAC West title, despite the NCAA not allowing returning quarterback David Moore to play due to eligibility issues.

The team's physicality on both sides of the ball is a key factor in their success. While there may not be specific stats to back this up, CMU's reputation as the most physical team in the Mid-American Conference is well-deserved.

As the season gets underway, it will be exciting to see which new players step up and make an impact for the Chippewas. With a strong defense and a solid track record of producing breakout players, CMU has all the makings of a successful season ahead.
