Pick the MAC, week 11!

Post by MarkL »

OK, here's standings up to now ... including winning percentages. If I screwed up, let me know and I'll get on it. I think everybody took a pretty serious hit over the last few weeks. Some of these games have been tough, tough calls. This is still anyone's game for the taking.

Bgsufalcon24 - 67-18 (.788)
Warthog - 66-19 (.776)
Lordbyron - 65-20 (.765)
Mjmorefield - 64-21 (.753)
Bgfalconfromcincy - 63-22 (.741)
MarkL - 63-22 (.741)
Kdog27 - 62-23 (.729)
Falconfan1999 - 62-23 (.729)
1987alum - 62-23 (.729)
Camkru - 60-25 (.706)
Footballguy51 - 58-27 (.682)

Sicsicalum - 18-4 (.818)
Jpfalcon - 12-1 (.923)
Polsenvsbgsu - 10-2 (.833)


Yeah I know, we have to pick some games without seeing some of this week's games ... thank you MAC office. So if you want to delay your picks until after Wednesday's Miami/Temple game (last game of last week's picks), no problem.

Here's the games of the week:

Thursday November 10
Ohio at Central Michigan, 7:30

Saturday November 12
Buffao at Eastern Michigan, 1:00
Kent State at Akron, 2:00

Tuesday November 15
Ball State at Northern Illinois, 8:00

Wednesday November 16
Western Michigan at Miami, 8:00
Ohio at Bowling Green, 8:00

And I think I'm gonna wait for a bit to make my picks. Yeah I know, that's lame, but I'd like to see the games tomorrow and Wednesday before picking. But if you feel like picking before watching those games, have at!

I'll pick blind. :)

Ohio at Central Michigan: I think there's a legit chance that Ohio has a letdown, but I believe they'll get it done in Mount Not-so-pleasant.

Buffao at Eastern Michigan: Go Hurons!

Kent State at Akron: Flashes claim the Wagon Wheel; Zips can't wait to get out of town.

Ball State at Northern Illinois: The Cards can make a game of this, but I don't think they can upend the Huskies.

Western Michigan at Miami: Broncos bear down on the road.

Ohio at Bowling Green: Following my Dad's advice.

About time I pick the games, right??

Ohio. CMU is wildly inconsistent this year.
Buffalo. EMU's a good story, but I just can't pick them in this one.
Kent. Akron's really, really, really, really bad and Kent has won two straight.
NIU. Ball State could make a shootout out of it but they don't have the horses to keep up.
WMU. Their offense seems to have their rhythm back ... sucks to be Miami.
Bowling Green. My homer pick of the week. I just can't pick against my guys.

And let's see how much further I keep falling ...

Ohio at Central Michigan, 7:30 Bobcats will win a boring game

Saturday November 12
Buffao at Eastern Michigan, 1:00 EMU gets back on track with a win over hapless Buffalo
Kent State at Akron, 2:00 Kent St. is better than Akron, but thats like saying you are the tallest midget in a circus....

Tuesday November 15
Ball State at Northern Illinois, 8:00 Chandler Harnish is legit, NIU Big!

Wednesday November 16
Western Michigan at Miami, 8:00 WMU is going to win going away.
Ohio at Bowling Green, 8:00 It is really hard to pick BG, but maybe, if we play more like we are capable of and tackle a stud player, then we will win a game! BG wins a close game

Thursday November 10
Ohio at Central Michigan, 7:30 - Ohio - This is a game that I could see going the other way, but the Bobcats should get it done on the road.

Saturday November 12
Buffao at Eastern Michigan, 1:00 - Eastern Michigan - EMU rocks Buffalo at home and keeps theoretical hope alive for a stunning West title.
Kent State at Akron, 2:00 - Kent State - The Flashes move to 3-3 and continue to mount their most unlikely of comebacks late in the season.

Tuesday November 15
Ball State at Northern Illinois, 8:00 - Northern Illinois - With the West title possibly on the line, this matchup is intriguing and dangerous. My gut is telling me to go for the upset, but that NIU offense is just sickening. Huskies win at home.

Wednesday November 16
Western Michigan at Miami, 8:00 - Miami - The Redhawks are coming on strong and are playing like the team we thought they would be at the start of the year. Plus Western can't win on the road.
Ohio at Bowling Green, 8:00 - Ohio - This is a painful choice to make, but it's obvious that BGSU's offense just isn't up to the task of scoring enough to beat teams right now.
