Real MAC Standings



Here are the standings this morning, based on the sad results from last night.  BG has fallen into 6th, which would leave us playing CMU in the MAC Tourney at the Stroh.  BG has essentially a 2-game lead on WMU since the Falcons beat them (and, in fact, every team below them in the standings right now).  With a win against Kent and a WMU loss @ UT, BG would clinch the #6 spot.  I guess it is safe to say that when last season ended we didn't think we'd be back mired in the middle of the conference, but once again, we are.

Anyway, that's for another day.  Akron has all but wrapped up the regular season title--if in fact they haven't wrapped it up for sure.

BG has two home games coming up.  Their chances of getting the bye are essentially gone.  We are two back of Kent and if BG beat Kent and ended up in a tie with them, we'd have the tiebreaker.  Still, that would take another win and another loss.  Note that EMU has as tough a road in the West as you can have right now.

Yeah, I see now that the NIU part is wrong, they are obviously done with @EMU.  DOH!
