Pick the MAC, week 12!

[MarkL]

OK, here's standings up to now ... including winning percentages. If I screwed up, let me know and I'll get on it. We have a tie for first place! And Falconian, with his bizarre picks ... is in position to steal it in the final weeks!

Same deal as last week, no problem if you delay your picks to closer to game time, but I figured I'd get these up there early. Here's the schedule:

Friday
Toledo at Central Michigan, 8:00

Saturday
Akron at Buffalo, 12:00
Army at Temple, 1:00
Eastern Michigan at Kent State, 1:00

Tuesday
Miami at Ohio, 7:00

And I'll put my picks up closer to Friday.

The season is quickly drawing to an end. Just like last year, we'll call it quits at the MAC title game, and just like last year, there's prizes for both most wins and highest winning percentage ... given that you've played through most of the weeks. It looks like this race is going to be down to the wire!

Toledo at Central Michigan. The Rockets will roll

Akron at Buffalo. Akron's year of misery grinds toward its conclusion.

Army at Temple. The Owls have to much speed & athleticism on offense.

Eastern Michigan at Kent State. This has the makings of a pretty good game!

Miami at Ohio. Rooting for the blimp crash here.

About time I pick these games, right??

Toledo. Another shootout tonight? I don't think so.
Buffalo. I was actually really tempted to pick Akron. They won last year as their only win of the year. Last year, though, they showed signs of progression late in the season. This year, well ...
Temple. No way Army's keeping up.
Kent State. Eastern Michigan would love to get to 7 wins and be bowl eligible. They're not there, yet as two of their wins are over FCS schools. Not sure why but I don't have the sense they get there. Kent wins again.
Ohio. Ohio's won like 5 straight in the series or something and makes it 6 straight. OU is a seriously good team and Miami is kind of like us ... lots of parts are working but they're having a tough time sealing the deal. Miami's going to be a contender next season ... just like us.

I'm trying to pick some odd ones to see if I can get lucky and climb the standings.

Friday
Toledo at Central Michigan, 8:00 - Toledo - Hard to imagine Toledo screwing up here when they badly need to win to keep their MAC title hopes alive.

Saturday
Akron at Buffalo, 12:00 - Buffalo - Akron is horrible. Period. Da Bulls big.
Army at Temple, 1:00 - Temple - Army will get steamrolled in this one, in fact if they even score in the game it would be a shock.
Eastern Michigan at Kent State, 1:00 - Kent State - The Empire march on 3rd downs, best idea ever - Kent continues their late surge

Tuesday
Miami at Ohio, 7:00 - Ohio - I could see the Bobcats dropping this one especially if they start resting guys, but I'll take them anyway.
