You know it’s a good week in the conference when your team can win an out of conference game on the road and still falling the rankings because of how they won.
Pretty much everyone had an ok or better week in the MAC setting up for an entertaining conference slate.
NIU is pretty clearly top half of the conference right now, perhaps even top third so things should get interesting in the West. Really the only team that looks like a hard no, at this point, is Central Michigan. Nobody else winning the west would be too shocking right now.
