After a somewhat lackluster November in terms of must-see #MACsketball games, business definitely picks up in the last month of the year as teams seek to separate themselves ahead of the conference season. Akron kicked off the December slate on Saturday at #10 Creighton in a 82-70 loss despite getting the game within four points in the second half.
Miami continues the great slate on Tuesday night as it travels to Missouri for a showdown with the Tigers on the SEC Network. Mizzou hasn’t been blowing the doors off of anybody this season, but the team nearly took down a highly touted Xavier team in overtime and have an average scoring margin of +8.
