Season Highlight Revisits Each Moment of 2020's Title Run
The 2020 Ball State football season was historic for countless reasons. The biggest two were obvious: The Cardinals won their first Mid-American Conference championship since 1996 and picked up their first bowl victory since joining the FBS ranks. But that's just where it begins.
This past fall also saw the Cardinals crack the AP Top 25 for the first time since 2008, ending the season ranked No. 23. It marked the first time Ball State found itself in the final poll of a college football season. BSU's bowl win was the first by a MAC champion since 2011 and it's MAC championship marked the first time a team not picked first or second preseason won the league a decade. The 2020 fall was truly about "Ball State against the world."
Now take a look back at how the 2020 championship run unfolded, from the start of fall camp to the start of another fall camp and each game along the way.
