MAC/SBC Challenge

Unread post by Saint3333 » Mon Jan 22, 2024 3:00 pm

App gets the MAC's #2, JMU got Arkon, which would have helped our NET.

Let's hear the whining from Toledo fans, how this isn't a reward for their season thus far. Beat the Rockets.

Toledo plays at Northern Illinois tomorrow and at Arkon on 2/2, need them to go on a run until they travel to us.

They may be a no show at Arkon.

Bummer that we didn't get Akron, but it's fair at least since SBC said NET rating would be the biggest determinate and JMU still sitting decently ahead of us. Our conference SOS is so weak that Toledo will still be a slight boost go figure.

You're right..it was fair. I wish they would have waited until after Saturday. If we win we will probably have the higher net.

JMU already played Toledo earlier in the year. I'd argue that is also an important reason they get Akron

Exactly. If we don’t lose the rest of the year we will be National Champions. :lol:

So in essence, you’re saying, “all of our goals are still in front of us”.
