Pre-season MAC Media Poll out
No surprises here. They picked Northern, the natural pick. I think they have a better idea of what Western is capable of then some other previews I have seen, and I think they may be underestimating Central, but, all told, the West was pretty much conventional widsom.
As was, in fact, the East. I don't think Akron's dominance is reflective of anyone's idea that Akron will be that dominant, but more a reflection of "who the hell do you pick." I think the BG pick is fair, (I don't know where we got 2 first place votes), and I commend the media for not falling prey to unwarranted Franklove.
The East will be wide open. (One unspoken advantage--Akron has Miami and BG at home).
