clarkwgriswold Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago My inclination is to root against Miami but at the same time Miami's success would be good for the MAC, and what's good for the MAC would have some benefit to Akron. The MAC teams doing well on the "Big Stage" would help the conference in being taken seriously on a national level. 3 Quote

Surprisingly, my hatred of a team and coach can overcome what is "good for the MAC." 2 Quote

Just like these 16 seeds that win the First Four games technically get a NCAA Tournament win while we don't have one. Not really fair but it's life. Quote

But then, for the vibes, I decided to use it on Akron making the Sweet 16. So, when that happens, I'll be $200 richer. 😆 I took all 3 bonus bets from DK & FD and threw it on SMU alternate spread (-8.5 to -9.5). Either my bank account benefits or Akron's bank account benefits from the credit split. Miami OH played 2 P4 teams last season with virtually the same roster (minus Ipsaro, Kraft, Cooper, and Potter). They lost to Michigan by 27 and Indiana by 19. SMU is a bigger, more skilled, and better shooting version of UMass and there won't be MAC refs. I will be truly shocked if this is a competitive game tonight.
