While the logo of the Mid-American Conference has been modified only once since 2000, it was a real overhaul that resulted in a completely different design.
Meaning and history
The old Mid-American Conference logo was based on a roundel, whereas the current one (introduced in 2008) features a shield shape. Both the old and the updated emblem showcase the initials of the name of the conference (“MAC”). On the previous logo, the letters looked sharper and stuck together forming a single element. On the current crest, each glyph stands separately.
The palette has also changed completely. While the logo used now combines green, silver, and navy, its predecessor features red and black.
