After the Eastern Michigan Eagles climbed to number 2 in our power rankings, they have lost 5 out of the last 6. Scoring has suddenly become an issue for this team.
The Akron Zips responded to their first conference loss on the season by edging out a good Ball State team. Akron doesn’t wow in any particular phase of the game, they just win.
Only 2 games separate 2nd place from 11th in the MAC right now. There are a lot of good teams in the league. I don’t think Akron is heads and shoulders above the pack, though their record says otherwise.
