Zips get some pub

[Zips Win!]

Look what a win combined with a Can't loss will do for you!! Page 3 of the USA Today today has an article "Filling in the fields".In the Moving Up column, the Zips top the list- (printed in alpha order):Akron- The Zips are 20-8 overall, 10-4 MAC, pulled within a game of East Division leading Can't State by throttling Buffalo 76-56 behind 20 points from Cedric Middleton. Akron has a rematch with Can't State next Sunday.Two of my favorite schools also make the Moving Down list. What a great read!!!

If we can beat OU and Can't, we'll be in a much better position than we are right now to get into an post-season tournament.

I'm as big a homer as anyone, and while it is great to read this, reality is Can't is still in a better position than us. They still lead the division and league, have a better overall record (and rpi, sos), and have the only "at large" chance of any MAC team (albeit slim). I think this article gives the impression we are suddenly in the driver's seat and Can't is done. It did however leave out one small detail:

Not sure really how to interpret this article. They have Texas listed in the Moving Down the Bubble portion. How is this when Texas is ranked 5th (prior to their recent loss to TT)? Even in their own article, they have Texas as a 2 Seed. They're nowhere near the bubble. We probably aren't either. It is nice to see Can't's bubble bursting, though.
