It is not just us most of the other MAC members are also somewhat unknown. Look at the variance in Toledo, NIU, EMU, & WMU in past 3 wks. I certainly don't feel CMU is a potential D winner because the score of the MSU game ended up being close. It is no different than our score with ND judging us. Buffalo looked like the team to beat in the east until the Army game & now who is the favorite their?

Pre season we all thought and were told this is what this team is going to be. Now 5 games in and we have seen 5 different teams show up. We have starters sitting, walk ons shining, We have Jeckyl and Hyde on Defense... We have had play calling from incompetent to brilliant.. I think we have multiple personalities

Army is pretty dang good. I’d say buffalo is still the favorite in the east but Akron will have something to say about it.
Realistically we’re still a 3-4 win team this year. We’re not going to beat Ut, emu, wmu, Ohio or niu. So we have to hope we can get cmu and maybe Miami. If we can’t get our running backs going it’ll be tough to beat anyone left on the schedule.

I’ll need to see how we perform versus Northern to make any projection, but I am feeling optimistic.

Well we aren't beating Miami then either because Western had to come from 14 down in the 2nd half to win 40-39. The Broncos got blasted by good teams and blasted the bad teams and came back to beat a not very good Miami team. We don't play them at Waldo so I think Ball State can definitely beat them.

As far as Miami I’m hoping they haven’t at had the season they expected by the time we play them at the end and they just want to get the season over. But they can put up big points with Ragland.
