CLEVELAND, Ohio (EMUEagles.com) - The Eastern Michigan-Central Michigan football game, scheduled for Friday, Nov. 26, will kick off at 12 p.m. ET, the Mid-American Conference office confirmed today, Nov. 15. The game will be shown nationally on ESPNU. WEMU (89.1 FM) will provide audio coverage of the game from Kelly-Shorts Stadium.

The longest-running series between any two MAC schools returns, as EMU and CMU will meet on the gridiron for the 99th time in history between the two programs. The Chippewas hold the series lead, 62-30-6. Last year, Central trailed throughout the game and then scored 25 points in the fourth quarter to pull out an improbable 31-23 victory at Rynearson Stadium, Nov. 24, 2020.
