Projected Standings/Seedings for MAC Tournament - Basketball Jones - 03-03-2021 09:43 AM

This would be the final standings if Toledo, Buffalo, Akron, and BG all win at home on Friday vs. Ball St, Kent, Miami and Ohio respectively.

1. Toledo 15-4 .789
2. Buffalo 13-5 .722
3. Akron 13-6 .684
4. Kent St 12-6 .666
5. Ohio U 9-6 . 600
6. BGSU 11-8 .578
7. Miami 9-9 .500
8. Ball St 8-9 .470

These standings/seedings would remain the same even if the BG vs. Ohio U Game is not played Friday. However, if Ohio U cannot play in the tournament, WMU would move into the 8th seed and BG, Miami and Ball St would move up one seed each. But with teams not playing to predictable outcomes like Toledo vs. CMU and BG vs. Miami, we just have to wait until Friday at 9:00pm to see where everything stands. And with COVID, even then we might not know who is going to be playing who next Thursday in Cleveland!

With that said, does anyone have an insight on what is going on at Ohio U in regards to COVID and their ability to play Friday and/or next week in Cleveland?

This is probably the best info out there on the subject at this point:

Good info, greatly appreciated! Hopefully Ohio will be able to play Friday and in Cleveland next week. As a Toledo Fan, we could see Ohio in the Semi Finals on Friday if the Rockets beat Ball St or Miami and the Bobcats beat most likely Kent St.

As of 4pm Thursday:

With that said, it looks like all of the seeds are locked in "as is" currently other than the 2 and 4 which will be decided tomorrow night when Kent plays at Buffalo. Does anyone know of the 4 teams, who besides Ohio U has COVID issues and what impact that will have on next week's tournament in Cleveland?

At 12-10, I think Miami has just clinched our first winning season since the Charlie Coles era, or 11 years ago. We have been close many times, but with almost everybody coming back next year, maybe we can get a positive streak going.


RE: Projected Standings/Seedings for MAC Tournament - Basketball Jones - 03-04-2021 10:29 PM

According to Nick P. at The Blade, Ohio U is still looking to play next week in Cleveland despite having 1 player confirmed with COVID and two in contract tracing protocol. Akron Beacon Journal article online states that Akron has some issues with COVID as well and that is why their game against Miami was cancelled tomorrow night. No word on their status for next week’s tournament. The challenge for all 8 teams heading into next Thursday's Quarter Finals is to not only practice well, but just as important, stay COVID Free!

Any news of COVID on the women's side?

I can't believe how god awful CMU, and the other directional schools, were this season. OOF.
