The mighty MAC goes 2-8 today in the MAC/SB Challenge so far today with one game in play to go. MAC took a beatdown today more or less securing the spot as the weakest men’s basketball conference in the NCAA. The thing is the conference won’t get any better as time goes on rather the opposite. When the league’s top teams get beat this soundly the message it sends to the rest of college basketball is we really don’t deserve to be here. Pathetic!

CMU and Buffalo burnished their credentials for at-large bids and high seeds with wins today

The MAC has gotten so pathetic, not just in basketball, but also football. The Sunbelt is a conference made up of mostly new D1 teams. They kicked the shit out of the MAC. I fell sorry for the Ball State starters, they got ZERO help from the bench - “0” Hate to think of what next year will bring. Sad part, I don’t feel any better about our football team.

Good for him. An off night would probably be welcomed by all the coaches about now

And he did mention cash strapped programs being sent on travel all over. Why do that in the height of the mac season. Conference office priorities are screwed.

Lewis voiced his displeasure with the whole challenge thing. One challenge game per season, scheduled in the pre-conference phase of the schedule is OK, and I think very interesting. Scheduling a second challenge game in February is ridiculous, especially when its an away game.

Scheduling a second challenge game in February is ridiculous, especially when its an away game. I'd hope we'd switch that home game up every year. Nice to have a decent home opponent preconference, but that in conference road game sucks.
