This is a very big match and could be the determinant of who hosts the MAC Conference Tournament.

Bowling Green (15-6, 11-0 MAC) is on a 12-match win streak. Ball State (20-3, 10-1 MAC) is on a 10-match win streak. The regular season conference champion will host the conference tournament. This will be the only regular season meeting between the two teams this season. Bowling Green wins this match, and they will be 2 matches ahead of Ball State and own the tiebreaker. Ball State wins this match and they are tied, but would own the H2H tiebreaker.

MACtion! is under way. 8-6 Ball State up in set 1.

BTW, in RPI terms, both of these teams are borderline T50 teams.

This could have impacts on bubble teams:

Cincinnati and High Point REALLY want Bowling Green to win this match.
Syracuse and Iowa State REALLY want Ball State to win this match.
