Im shocked at how much people are Defending the current state of the MAC

12 Conference Teams 18 Years = No At Large Im sorry but I find it hard to believe that a lack of strength of schedule is the reasoning for no MAC team getting a bid the past 18 years. Arguably our best team in school history 26–7 (13–3) in 2007 lost the MAC Tourney Final on a buzzer beater and didn't even get a NIT bid. We are defending a conference who hasn't done a good enough job defending itself

Sorry but I disagree. The MAC hasn't had an at large bid since Miami of Ohio in 1999. Thats unacceptable. The perception and respect of the MAC is an absolute joke and the Commish is basically a puss for never speaking up and defending the conference. I wish Akron would up and leave as the MAC does not benefit us at all.

Dru Joyce come save us

We just lost our coach to a Conference I wish we could leave the MAC to join. Thats what pisses me off. Im fed up with the MAC

I dunno how to feel right now I hope we had a Plan B

Gawd I dream of leaving the useless MAC to join the A10

Feels like I am watching Zips football in March @SpinDavies: Embarrassing performance tonight from Akron. Can't believe this team, the seniors especially, is going out on this note. #NIT

@EA3Kazoo: I've only seen Akron get run out of the gym twice in last decade. First time was against VCU a couple yrs ago in dance. Second is right now

We look like a JV team out there

Words can not express how happy I am for my Zips. Great rebound. #ProudAlum

Will probably screw us on not hosting a NIT game again

Tom Withers ‏Verified account @twithersAP Feel bad for Akron's kids. Great season (26 wins) lost to hot team and now won't make NCAAs because some power 5 team will get gift invite.

I honestly hate the MAC in regards to perception. I wish we become an Atlantic 10 Team someday = Multiple Bid Conference

Henry Palattella‏ @HellaPalattella 3 minutes ago Akron head coach Keith Dambrot just apologized to Ohio's Jaaron Simmons in regards to a comment he made about him earlier in the year

Same thing the past few years. Come out the gate strong By February we are feeling ourselves and become Hollywood. Fall on our face and never fully recover.

They care more about fighting Ball State

No I am referring to the first time they beat us this season when we were indeed in the driver seat for an At Large.

And it looks like we didn't even stay on the floor to shake their hands. I am embarrassed to be a Zips Alum right now. Classless.

You let Kent State end our winning streak and chance at an At large Bid and now end our route to the NCAA. Pissed. I knew I saw no fight in this team when I saw these fools rather focusing on fighting Ball State literally.

Cheatham did this same BS last year

Once again we are in a free fall at the worst time now having to rely on winning the MAC to get in the NCAA Tourney. Same ish different season. And I could care less about the last call. Fact of the matter is we were down 36-29 at the half to Bowling Bleeping Green.

This game gives me a little hope against the Zags

They are not going down without a fight
