Game 5: No. 8 Eastern Michigan vs. No. 9 Toledo Winner vs. No. 1 Akron, 12 Noon
Game 6: No. 5 Kent State vs. No. 12 Bowling Green Winner vs. No. 4 Central Michigan
Game 7: No. 7 Northern Illinois vs. No. 10 Western Michigan Winner vs. No. 2 Ohio
Game 8: No. 6 Ball State vs. No. 11 Miami Winner vs. No. 3 Buffalo
Ball St loss to NIU last night cost them a first round bye.. Akron has been playing well and is the only MAC team that deserves and at large if they fail to win the MAC T. The power resides in the East and Ohio led by Antonio Campbell or Buffalo led by the Bearden/Hamilton due appear to be the likely candidates to knock off #1 Akron.
My Cellar Cinderella pick is Miami of Ohio who played better in February and perhaps Gavin Block and the Red Hawks will take advantage of the reeling Ball St squad. March is madness time.
