When we think of the Mid-American Conference, we think of a Group of 5 conference who can sometimes do some damage to a Power 5 team (aka Kansas, Nebraska, and Rutgers). But boy oh boy did we get a treat at the MAC Media Day:

“I have provided a MAC Jolly Roger flag to each institution have asked they after each victory, home or away, that the flag be run up the flag pole and remain there until the next game.” – Commissioner Steinbrecher #FlyTheFlag #MACtion pic.twitter.com/J7gvvk8OCy

Oh my goodness, the MACtion has now become the Pirates of the MAC, and it’s more than I could ever want. The fact that their commissioner said that ” I have always thought of the MAC as the pirates of college football”, is a quote of the offseason. If I’m one of the MAC teams, I am going to release some pirate themed unis like East Carolina or EMCC from Last Chance U.

We need these flags to be on sale ASAP so that the average joe of college football can hang it up in their rooms and have a sense of pride every time they see the Black and White MAC logo over some bones. If that doesn’t get you pumped up for some Thursday Night College Football, then I don’t know what will.

It’s 2018 folks, we don’t drop bags anymore… WE FLY THE FLAG!
