Now MU is going to come out of the locker room fired up after getting screamed at.

Had their chance, lets hope im wrong.

Actually you were wrong.

Hey if they would have made 2 of those missed layups in the first half it wouldnt have been a nail biter

Congrats to Eastern. Great win for them. Good for the MAC.

doing the MAC proud! Well done eagles!

Between their football going bowl-less and their basketball losing two straight to NJIT and 'lowly' EMU, it's a wonderful time to be a Wolverine fan!

Congrats to the Eagles, Murphy is a solid coach. I hope you guys can rekindle the Boykinds magic (except for when you play Miami of course).

Looks like she smelled a fart. Or she was wondering how Spike Albrecht gets minutes.

Congrats Eagles! Coming from a Bobcat, taking down Michigan a notch in basketball is always a good feeling

Way to go EMU!!!

congrats EMU!

Jon Greenberg of ESPN (and Ohio grad) tweeted "If Caris Lavert wanted to beat Eastern Michigan he should've gone to OU."

I enjoyed that win for a lot of reasons.

Tough loss in one of the toughest places to win. Too bad.

BG scored 11 in a row to take a 50-39 lead with 10:17 to play, then tanked it and lost 56-52. That's hard to fathom.

dayton shot 29 free throws to 6 for bg

Congrats EMU. A force to be reckoned with in the MAC this year for sure.

Congrats to the Eastern program. Huge win....

I'm not going to start a thread for RPI because it's really too early, but here are the current MAC RPIs. Teams have played between 5 and 8 games, so it's still too early to take much from these, but it's past halfway through the non-conference part of the schedule. A lot of movement is still possible and probable, but once MAC play starts in less than a month, movement is somewhat limited.

17. Buffalo
54. Eastern Michigan
108. Akron
127. Bowling Green
140. Ohio
143. Kent State
180. Northern Illinois
197. Western Michigan
226. Central Michigan
239. Toledo
288. Miami (OH)
311. Ball State

Great win, EMU! Congrats!!

Six games today, and the MAC is favored in five of them. Can't afford any missteps. Big upset opportunity for Ball State at a Valpo team that looks a bit like a paper tiger.

Ohio picks up a home win vs Alcorn State. A bit closer than I expected.

BGSU is up 10 on Cleveland State with 9 minutes to go.

No doubt these are suspect, due to small sample size.

Buffalo has played all of their games on the road and when one of your two losses is to Kentucky, it will give you a pretty high RPI... With them playing Wisconsin in two weeks we may stay pretty high through non conference season.
