The Midwest Intercollegiate Football Conference (MIFC) was a football-only NCAA Division II conference active for nine seasons in the 1990s. The creation of the MIFC was announced in February 1989.[1] Conference play began in September 1990.
The conference was formed by a merger of the football-only Heartland Collegiate Conference and the football playing members of the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (GLIAC), which dropped football as a conference sport after the 1989 season. The membership of the MIFC was somewhat unstable. The league started with 11 teams and finished with 14, but just 8 members played all nine seasons. Seventeen different institutions were members of the MIFC at one time or another.
