Sundays Big M.A.C. Attack

[rwall]

Todays theme for me will be all MAC games as 12 of the 13 teams play. Most are openinng their conf play.

Starting with the 2:00 EST games
3* Marshal-9 over Central Michigan
Chippewas 0-9 in MAC road games (SU) last year and 0-3 in road games this year(all non- conf.). Road woes continue today. Herd has played a rough schedule against tough foes, and has been home only 3 of 9 games.
I take notice when a 2-7 team is a substantial fav over a team with a better record.(CMU 5-4)

2* Buffalo +6 over Bowling Green
Buff already has a loss in the conf, but came against defending league champ WMU. Buff picked by many to win the east. I look for the scrappy Buff's to keep it within the #. They force a conf leading 19 TO's pg while BG already turns it over 16.2 times pg.

Good Luck to all
Be back later if possible

3-1 yesterday
19-17 overall on posted plays
+4*'s since I started rating the games

Adding another 2 p.m.'er

1* Ball State +1 over Kent State

Both Teams appear close statistically. Kent has recieved alot of accolades lately and opened as a small favorite. I'm thinking the odds makers want KSU money.

Here's another

4*Toledo +1 over Eastern Michigan

Toledo started the year 1-5 but that was against some toughy's @ Vandy, @Wright, @East Car., @ Duke and Nevada.
They have since gone 3-0 most notably beating Delaware and Auburn.
And to think EMU's strenghth of schedule has an RPI ranking of 324 and the Rockets have a SOS RPI ranking of 43.
