RE: MAC Tournament Predictions 2017
The record for points scored in the MAC Tournament is 116pts, set by Armon Bassett 2010, an avg of 29pts/gm over 4 games. Can Marcus Keene top it?

CMU to play 4 games in the tourney??????

I'll predict, I think, Ohio.

Best play these days is to pick a team with a first round bye.

I would go with Akron over Buffalo in the final. Those teams have so much depth and firepower inside and out.

I'd throw Toledo in that bucket as well. They just haven't had the recent success (2014 notwithstanding) to feel their presence.

I think Id take the road team in all these games except the NIU and EMU. EMU should win fairly comfortably just as they did in Ypsi a week or two ago. CMU, Miami, and BG I think will be more competitive than the lines show.

RE: MAC Tournament Predictions 2017
Here is an interesting, to Ball State fans at least, MAC tournament factoid: Ball State is the only school in the MAC to have both men's and women's teams go directly to Cleveland with first round byes. They were also the only teams from the same school to both have 20-win regular season records. Their combined won-lost record is 41-20.

Congratulations, that is what we all shoot for.

Actually, Mustangs has a nice ring to it. I'd consider a mascot change. It is common knowledge that Mustangs are better at rowing than Broncos.

Don't take it personally, the Miami Student is a complete joke of an organization. A student-run tabloid would be more substantial in content than their attempt at news.

Vegas would have loved you. Against the spread, you went 1-3, winning only Miami +12. Straight up, also 1-3 with EMU being the only winner.

Looks like CBS Sports has Akron winning the MAC Tournament. They have them entering the Dance as the #13 seed, playing #4 Purdue in the 1st round.

Looks like she got a little heat in the Comments and corrected it.

If we are to be given an incorrect name, might as well be Hilltoppers, which we once were. 04-rock
