#1 - Kent State (3) |
19-7 |
1 |
36 |
RPI #80 - They won their bracket buster game and maintain their edge on the rest of the conference. -Tues. @ BGSU, Sat. vs. Miami |
#2 - Akron |
19-6 |
2 |
33 |
RPI #70 - The Zips are still nipping at KSU's heels, but they didn't do themselves any favors in the momentum department with their loss to Nevada on Friday. -Wed. @ Miami, Sat. vs. Ohio |
#3 - Miami |
15-8 |
3 |
30 |
RPI #84 - Beating Illinois State on Saturday to extend the 6-game winning streak was a nice, but beating Ohio earlier in the week all but guarantees a free trip to Cleveland. -Wed. vs. Akron, Sat. @ Kent |
#4 - Ohio |
15-8 |

RPI #102- They looked terrible versus Miami, but then solid against Samford last week. It's amazing at this point that no other teams have passed them, but the rest of the conference is as inconsistent as the Bobcats. -Wed. vs. Buffalo, Sat. @ Akron |
#5 - Northern Illinois |
13-10 |
5 |
23 |
RPI #122 - Three losses in a row. The fans are starting to call for Judson's head. With games against conference doormats EMU and CMU this week, we should get to see if the wheels have come completely off. -Wed. vs. CMU, Sun. vs. EMU |
#6 - Western Michigan |
11-14 |
6 |
22 |
RPI #174 -
The Broncos are 7-3 in their last 10 with nobody else in the West any better than 5-5. They're quickly becoming the popular choice to win the division. -Wed. @ Ball St., Sat. vs. CMU |
#7 - Toledo |
13-10 |
8 |
18 |
RPI #177 - The Rockets may have lost to Detroit, but they are still in sight of the MAC West title. Sitting 2 games behind, they need NIU and WMU to slip and win all 4 of their remaining games; of which all are winnable. -Wed. @ EMU, Sat. vs. Ball St. |
#8 - Buffalo |
16-10 |
7 |
15 |
RPI #132 - Two more losses for the Bulls, but they gave Kent a heck of a battle on Wednesday. We'll see if the Bulls can get up for another game with Ohio; this time in Athens. -Wed. @ Ohio, Sat. vs. BGSU |
#9 - Bowling Green |
9-16 |
10 |
11 |
RPI #248 - Wright State is an underrated team, but nobody should walk onto your homecourt and hand it to you like that. -Tues. vs. Kent, Sun. @ Buffalo |
#10 - Ball State |
9-14 |
9 |
10 |
RPI #228 - The Cardinals won at Central Michigan on Wednesday, further distancing themselves from the bottom of the MAC. -Wed. vs. WMU, Sun. @ Toledo |
#11 - Eastern Michigan |
6-17 |
11 |
6 |
RPI #300 - They weren't expected to be good, but they certainly weren't expected to be this bad. Sad to see such a talent like John Bowler wasted on such a lousy team. -Wed. vs. Toledo, Sun. @ NIU |
#12 - Central Michigan |
4-19 |
12 |
3 |
RPI #309 - Sefton Barrett and Giordan Watson are probably the only two guys on this team who could crack the 10-man of the top 8 teams in this league. -Wed. @ NIU, Sun. @ WMU |
