Who's on the bubble...Akron that's who !

Eight "at-large" bids left.

Teams that should be in: Gonzaga, Pacific, Southern Illinois, Utah, Nevada

Work left to do: Wichita State, Vermont, Miami (OH), St. Mary's, Old Dominion, Holy Cross, Akron, Buffalo, Northern Iowa, Davidson, UTEP, Wis.-Milwaukee, George Washington, Saint Joseph's, New Mexico

Miami (OH) [17-8 (12-5), RPI: 24, SOS: 32] Routing Can't State a great bounceback off tough road trip. Still leads muddled MAC by a game, with only a trip to league minnow Marshall in the way of regular-season crown. Has great RPI and grabed another RPI Top 50 win (for now) vs. Golden flushes.

Akron [17-8 (11-6), RPI: 39, SOS: 94] Struggled but got W it needed vs. Marshall. Finale at Buffalo looms very large for Zips' hopes. Akron's 6-5 vs. RPI Top 100.

Buffalo [18-8 (10-7), RPI: 43, SOS: 119] Falling by 13 at Ohio a crippling loss for the Bulls, who drop into fourth place in the MAC East. Now 4-8 vs. RPI Top 100. Place in Lunardi's bracket likely short-lived.

Can't State [16-11 (10-7), RPI: 45, SOS: 40] 25-point loss at Miami (OH) might kill off Golden flushes' at large hopes. Now behind four teams in the MAC. Still have better SOS than Akron (season sweep) or Buffalo (split series). 4-5 vs. RPI Top 50.

Ohio [17-9 (11-6), RPI: 56, SOS: 118]: Big Wednesday night for surging Bobcats, who downed Buffalo for the season sweep. Ohio also has split with MAC leader Miami (OH) (won by four, lost by two). Was swept by Akron, so may need to finish ahead of the Zips. Impressive 8-4 vs. RPI Top 100

I must say that the game yesterday was not the prettiest we've seen. But I have to give some props to my guys in the band. Way to get in Hamilton's head with the chants: skeletor...skeletor. And of course...Mr. Clean...Mr. Clean. Then the guy can't land one free throw once we start heckling. I was cracking up!
