How we count
Records are summed once per game on this schedule, so an opponent who shows up twice is counted twice. Before playing Ball State uses only that opponent's games completed before the kickoff. vs. Ball State is the opponents' combined record in those head-to-head games. After playing Ball State uses only games completed later. Total adds the three together. Canceled, postponed, and vacated games are excluded. Winning percentage counts a tie as half a win.
Completed games only, including the postseason. Exhibition games are left out. A neutral site does not change who won.
