As of December 20, 2025

The 2025 Mid-American Conference football season was the 80th season for the Mid-American Conference (MAC), as part of the 2025 NCAA Division I FBS football season. Non-conference play began on August 28.[1] Conference play began on September 13 and concluded with the MAC championship game on December 6 at Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan.[2] Just as it was in 2024, the MAC did not have divisions. The Championship game featured the two teams with the best conference records.[3] The MAC saw its first change in its football membership since 2015, and the first change in its core membership since 2005, with the addition of UMass.[4] This was Northern Illinois' last season as it has joined the Mountain West Conference for football in 2026.[5]

Western Michigan finished its conference season with a 7–1 conference record. It finished the regular season in sole possession of first place in the MAC standings and earned the MAC regular-season title.[6] Miami finished in a three-way tie for second place with Ohio and Toledo at 6–2 in the conference.[7] Miami won the tiebreaker to advance to the championship game in spite of losing to both teams during the regular season.[8] In the championship game, Western Michigan avenged their only regular season conference loss with a 23–13 victory over Miami.[9][10]

Western Michigan's defensive end Nadame Tucker was the Defensive Player of the Year and won the Vern Smith Leadership Award. Western Michigan swept the major awards as quarterback Broc Lowry won Offensive Player of the Year and Lance Taylor won Coach of the Year.[11]

The MAC Football Kickoff was held on Thursday, July 24, 2025 at the Ford Field in Detroit, Michigan from 9:00 am EDT to 1:30 pm EDT.[12] Commissioner Jon Steinbrecher spoke.
