We've had enough games to separate teams more. Schools toward the bottom are more muddled and not too relevant to the conference races.

1. Western Michigan (Should go undefeated)
2. Toledo (Provo is a tough place to get a win)
3. Central Michigan (Cooper Rush and they did beat a Top 25 team)
4. Ohio (Has a D good enough to win MAC games)
5. Akron (Offense will be good in MAC play)
6. Eastern Michigan (4-1 but not strong competition)

-NIU may be getting back on track which could mean some surprise wins in conference play.

-BG is getting ready for a rough MAC stretch of Ohio, Toledo and Miami. That should finish their season.

-Miami has Akron, Kent, BG up next. They could make some noise in the East.

-Ball State may only have 1 more sure win left on the schedule in Buffalo.
