Rocket normally does this weekly article and my territory is usually football so forgive me if my sensibilities for picks this week are fairly different, but there’s still a lot of great #MACsketball on the horizon for this week, especially as conference play starts to reveal who’s who in the run to Cleveland.
Here’s the four games I’ll be keeping an eye on this week:
Northern Illinois vs. Kent State (Tuesday, Jan. 24 at 7 p.m. EST on ESPN3)
One of the more surprising storylines of the season has been Kent State’s recent struggles to open the MAC slate.
