- 2018
Ball State's 2008 football team went undefeated in the regular season and reached as high as No. 12 in the national rankings under head coach Brady Hoke. The Cardinals were one of four teams that went through the regular season undefeated (Alabama, Boise State, Utah). The 2008 team set a program record for wins in a season (12), won the Mid-American Conference West Division title for the first time since the league split into divisions in 1997 and made the program's lone appearance in the MAC Championship game thus far. Twelve players earned All-MAC honors, while Hoke was named MAC Coach of the Year, Nate Davis was selected as the MAC Offensive Player of the Year, and Sean Baker earned MAC Freshman of the Year accolades.
