So here are the MAC standings current for today. These are tie-breaker correct, so that's a true look at how things are today. There are now 5 teams within one game of the lead, which leaves one of those teams out of the bye-range. The Falcons are in 3rd due to their losses to UT and Akron. They have a one-game lead--plus a tie-breaker (right now) over both Kent and CMU. BG had a 3-game lead for home court with 7 to play.
Here's this weekend's MAC play:
Kent @ UT
Tonight's Friday night special. This is a big one. Kent is coming off a loss against Akron, and UT seems to be hitting their stride after a big win @UB. It will be interesting to see if UT is starting to regain its home court mojo. I like UT in this one.
BG @ BSU
More tomorrow, but BG really needs to win against the MAC"s last place team, even on the road.
CMU @ UB
Saturday's biggest game. CMU is looking to be the real deal but UB is under some real pressure. They are now down two games from the top of the conference and their Coach (as always) seems more interested in refereeing than he does in Coaching. Anyway, I look for UB to close this one out, but the pressure will be on for this one. The Bulls don't want to go down 3 with 6 to play.
Ak @ EMU
Akron should win this one...EMU is paying the price for their soft pre-season schedule.
NIU @ WMU
After the meltdown at the Stroh Wednesday, look for WMU to rebound in front of home cooking.
OU @ Miami
No actual standings consequences to this one.
