Millet Hall is a death trap for the Zips,but I still preferred Miami.  At this point it's what team has the heart to do it.  What a colossal fail by Western.  Gives Ball State who just lost to NIU an undeserved bye.  Sends NIU to Kent.

Hopefully we'll catch a flat WMU team after that performance. 

 

As bad as we were as a whole this year on more of a macro level - we were in so many game with top MAC teams this year and just couldn't pull it off when you start to look at things under a microscope. Odds are slimmer than they've ever been in my time as a Zips fan, but the MAC stinks out loud this year, so who knows?

WMU deserves to lose to us after screwing over a lot of teams and sending the insufferable Cardinals straight to Cleveland.  Now the Kittens head right back across the state to Oxford.   BG also lost their home court advantage because of the CMU win.

 

Either team we played...Miami or Western...we were going to be the team coming in with a win and some confidence. 

After this weekend's games anything can happen after you get below the top 3 seeds.

 

Central Michigan’s victory over Western Michigan on Saturday left Kent State with the No. 5 seed and the University of Akron with the No. 11 seed in the Mid-American Conference Tournament, which opens Monday with games at campus sites.

The Golden Flashes (15-16, 9-9 MAC) will host No. 12 Northern Illinois (13-18, 6-12) at 7 p.m. Monday and the winner will play No. 4 Ball State (19-12, 10-8) at approximately 2:30 p.m. Thursday at Quicken Loans Arena.

The Zips (13-17, 6-12) will play at Western Michigan (17-14, 9-9) at 7 p.m. Monday and the winner will play No. 3 Eastern Michigan (20-11, 11-7) at approximately 9 p.m. Thursday at Quicken Loans Arena. 

The other first-round games on Monday will be No. 10 Ohio (14-16, 7-11) at No. 7 Miami (15-16, 8-10) and No. 9 Central Michigan (17-13, 7-11) at No. 8 Bowling Green (16-15, 7-11).

The Ohio-Miami winner will play No. 2 Toledo (21-10, 13-5) at 6:30 p.m. and the Bowling Green-Central Michigan winner will play No. 1 Buffalo (23-8, 15-3) at noon on Thursday at Quicken Loans Arena.

This apparently was a mistake in the MAC's post last night.  

 

It said that Central would get the #8 spot with a win today.
