MAC Standings and Preview February 10

So, MAC games are on Tuesday this week....here are the standings.  Again, no tie breakers have been employed, just sorted by remaining home games.  With half the conference within one game of the top, we are buckled in for some high quality play.

Two very big games tonight.

First, Kent is at Akron.  Game often ends up being big, and this year is no exception.  Akron beat UB at the JAR last week and they are a 6-point favorite tonight, given that Kent is without Jimmy Hall, Kellon Thomas and maybe Kris Brewer.

Second is Toledo @ Buffalo.  The Bulls need this one pretty badly.  With a loss, they fall 2 games behind at least the winner of Akron and Kent.   Pressure is on Toledo, too.  The Rockets are playing much better but have 5 road games left and a win here would be huge.

BG plays WMU at the Stroh.

CMU@OU should be interesting.  The Bobcats seem to be playing better and they are at home, but CMU appears to be pretty good.

Miami@EMU and Ball State@NIU....eh.
