If the Zips win or tie, they once again win the regular season title and host the MAC tournament. Would not be a bad result for such a frustrating season. If they lose, the Zips lose both, since WVU plays WMU and even a tie would knock the Zips from the top spot. Buffalo is a must win (or tie).

1. Akron 3-1-0 10-6-1

2. West Virginia 2-1-1 10-6-1

3. Western Michigan 2-1-1 8-6-4

4. Buffalo 1-1-2 5-9-2

5. Bowling Green 1-2-1 12-5-1

6. Northern Illinois 0-3-1 3-8-5

MDZip,

I believe that we need to win at Buffalo to be assured the top spot. If we tie and WMU wins, then WMU would win the MAC by virtue of their win over us.

@MDZip, the Zips can lose to Buffalo and still win the MAC Regular Season. (def not preferable) Just win so we don't have to rely on the others' result.

@Aaron, the Zips can't win at Buffalo since the match is in Akron.

For winning the MAC Regular Season and hosting the MAC Tournament, MAC record is all that matters. Points are in Parentheses. Only Akron, WVU, and WMU are capable of winning the MAC regular season with only 1 game remaining.

1. Akron 3-1-0 (9)

2. West Virginia 2-1-1 (7)

3. Western Michigan 2-1-1 (7)

EDIT2: Decided to clean this up a bit.

Akron WIN v Buffalo...Akron wins the MAC Regular Season

Akron TIE v Buffalo...

Akron (10) wins the MAC Reg Season with a WVU (10) win over WMU (7) [Akron defeated WVU] OR a WVU (8) TIE with WMU (8)

WMU (10) wins the MAC Reg Season with a win over WVU (7); [WMU defeated Akron]

Akron LOSS v Buffalo...

Akron (9) wins the MAC Reg Season with a WVU (8) TIE with WMU (8)

WMU (10) wins the MAC Reg Season with a win over WVU (7)

WVU (10) wins the MAC Reg Season with a win over WMU (7)

Akron can be no lower than 2nd seed, but who cares about that.

Really. If Zips cannot pound 5-9-2 Buffalo, at home, in November, then they do not deserve to go to the tournament. Seriously.

WVU defeated WMU 2-1 in Kalamazoo this afternoon. Zips need a W or T.

I agree that the Zips should defeat Buffalo at home tonight.

If Akron wins tonight and Bowling Green wins at N. Illinois, Akron would have a rematch against W. Michigan in the semis (BGSU and WMU would tie for 3rd but BGSU won regular season matchup)

Friday's Choices for Zips Fans:

6PM WBB vs Binghampton

7PM MSOC vs WMU

8PM MBB vs UMBC

If you go to the soccer game, you won't miss much of the Men's basketball game. It probably won't start til about 8:30 because the half hour changeover between games.
