So much for the home court advantage

Posted: 2/22/2014 8:52:25 PM

Counting today's games, by my count home teams hold only a 43-37 edge in MAC play. It used to be that if a team won a MAC game on the road it was called "stealing." Not this season.

EDIT: The edge is actually 44-36. Here's the breakdown for each team and division:

Team	Home	Away
Buffalo	6-1	4-3
Ohio	4-3	5-2
Akron	4-2	5-3
Kent	4-4	2-4
Fiami	2-4	3-4
BG	2-5	3-3
	22-19	22-19
Toledo	6-0	4-3
WMU	6-1	4-2
EMU	4-2	3-4
NIU	3-4	3-3
CMU	2-4	0-7
BSU	1-6	0-6
	22-17	14-25

The Vegas favorite is 6-8 in Bobcat games this year. So more often than not, the unexpected happened. Should be a wild ride.

The record of the favorites conference wide is 53-27.

Life on the road

Has taken on a decidedly different meaning in the MAC. It is no longer an excuse....

I like us on the road this year (trip to Stroh looming large). For some reason this team gets focused on the bus and in the hotels. I would like to know what is different in prep and how they travel.....or if this is just an abberation that won't be replicated.

I think @ Stroh will be a war, @ Miami will not be cake either.

never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Winter comes and asks how you spent your summer.....

The game loves and rewards those who love and reward the game
