YPSILANTI, Mich. (EMUEagles.com) — The Eastern Michigan-Ohio football game, scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 23, will kickoff at 2 p.m., the Mid-American Conference office announced today, Sept. 11. The game will be shown nationally on ESPN3. WEMU (89.1 FM) will provide audio coverage of the game from "The Factory" at Rynearson Stadium.
The contest is Band and Hall of Fame Day, as eight former EMU student-athletes will be honored for their outstanding careers. The E-Club Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2017 includes: Brian Bixler (Baseball), Walter Church (Football), Lauren Clark (Softball), William DuLac (Football), Jessica Hupe (W. Soccer), Robin Loheide (W. Gymnastics), Lela V. Nelson (W. Track & Field), and Tiberia T. Patterson (M. Track).
After its first victory over a 'Power 5' opponent in program history, EMU will enjoy an early season bye week before returning to action against the Bobcats. The Eagles recorded a heart-pounding 16-13 victory over Rutgers University, Sept. 9, at High Point Solutions Stadium. With the win, EMU snatched its first win over a Big Ten Conference opponent in 39 tries, and moved to 2-0 on the season for the first time since 2011.
Eastern Michigan is 12-18-1 against Ohio all-time. The Eagles won for the first time in seven tries last season, when EMU knocked off the eventual MAC East Champions, 27-20, in Athens. It was the Eagles' first win at Ohio since 1994. EMU has not defeated OU inside Rynearson Stadium since 1999, which was EMU's last win over Ohio before last season.
