Real MAC Standings....

So...things are different in the MAC this year. There are now two levels of byes you can win, and finishing in the top 2 and 4 present a huge advantage. Also, the division champion is no longer guaranteed a bye of some kind, which essentially means that the divisions are meaningless except for scheduling. So far, EMU and Ball State are qualifiers, but it remains to be seen if that can survive the cross-over games.So here are the MAC standings, with byes noted. For now, I have broken ties with RPI. It is too early to worry about tie-breakers. Obviously, Akron at 4-1 with an extra home game is a nice position to be in. It is clearly still early, we are not even 1/3 into the schedule but here is where things stand.
