MAC hoops 5-0 on Tuesday
5-0 vs division I teams with two being away games. Not bad
BGSU, CMU, Buffalo, WMU, and Ohio with wins.
MAC looks a bit deeper so far....rpi is looking much better for the conference and should get better as Akron and Buffalo get on track.
UMass #1 rpi and four games coming up with the MAC. UMass @ Ohio coming up in December should be a good game. Bobcats might be jacked up for that one especially if UMass is still unbeaten and ranked.

Dear God I hope so... Ohio can be a nightmarish team if they are clicking.
Great job tonight everybody! The MAC is looking a lot better and it would be nice to see it keep up.
GO MAC!

Dec 3rd at EMU is our next game. The MAC is looking good this year.

RE: MAC hoops 5-0 on Tuesday
Great win by Ohio. Definitely the most quality win of the night.
Not sure how good Robert Morris is but it was great to see Buffalo get out to a 20 point lead against a D1 opponent and more or less stay there for the rest of the game. We were missing a lot of shots early this season and struggling to lock down the lane, but last night was very different. McCrea had 12 points 9 rebounds at half and wasn't called on to do much in the second

The difficulties for the MAC start today.
http://scores.espn.go.com/ncb/scoreboard...&confId=14
EMU + 18.5, Kent - 6, and BSU +11.5. No line yet on BG/Oral Roberts.
Looks like 2 wins would be a 'good day at the office'...

For some reason, I have seen Bobby Mo play 4 times this year now, once in person. I still can't get a good read on them. They played well at EMU, got blasted by UK, played 30 good minutes against Cleveland State and were beaten pretty good at UB. I think they'll do well again in conference (14-4 last year) and end up being a pretty good win for UB, EMU and UT.
As an Ohio fan, it brought back bad memories watching Karvel Anderson. He was 8-8 from 3 last year against Ohio scoring 28 points.

As long as Kent can pull out a win today I'm ok with the other loses. Kent and one other win would be great

RE: MAC hoops 5-0 on Tuesday
While YSU has a gaudy RPI (11!), it is fool's gold. It is an aberration of early RPI craziness (e.g. Miami currently has a better RPI than Toledo and 7 other MAC teams: 78 to UT's 84).
Here are their six wins: Kennesaw St, FIU, E.KY, Warren Wilson, Westminster (PA), and Thiel. Their one loss was a 16 point beating by UMass.
Really, KSU should overmatch them, especially out front. On the other hand, though, the Flashes have a history of very close game against both YSU and CSU. We still haven't gotten over losing to a 5-23 YSU team in 2001-2 with very arguably the best team in MAC history.
