But Ohio is struggling bad right now. I know students are back and the Convo should be loud....but Toledo on another level this year. Cats are saying all the right things....and I know the line smells....but can't see Ohio winning this one. Hope I'm wrong (an OU grad)....but I'm riding with the Rockets tonight. They got wake up call with loss to CMU...looked dialed in vs. Akron
3* Loyola -12'
Evansville -1
Davidson -1'
Toledo -2'
NIU +9'
Central Mich. -11'
Western Mich -9
Akron -3'
And a trio of 1H
Buffalo -5'
Central Mich -6'
Western Mich -5'
Both are coming off losses. CMU was torched at Ball & Miami has been dreadful in 1H this year. Buffalo has been cover machine all year...so I think they have big 1H....but have feeling NIU keeps it close in 2nd. Ball has been playing over their head. Think they'll struggle to get their feet on road tonight.
Akron coming off big loss to Toledo. BG has been good, but league has been so balanced can't see anyone going 3-0. Ditto for Ball State. They're due to get smacked around and WMU is good at home.

Loyola lays huge egg at home. Woke up enough to win, but slept thru most of game. So lethargic they didn't even get into the bonus in 2H. Pathetic.
Good night in MAC. NIU dug too big a 1H hole to rally back. WMU dug too big 1H hole to cover. Easy winners for CMU, Akron & Toledo.....and CMU & UB 1H.
Not a big winner night (Thanks Loyola) but not a losing night.
