So who's taking the MAC this year?

Seems that Akron is the favorite heading into the season. Anyone think they can do it again?

Football? Well, I sure as hell know it's not going to be Kent. Akron, I'll say begrudginly, stands to have a good chance to dominate. Again, I could really care less. Akron sucks. Stupid kangaroo.

[FetznJtown]

You sound a bit bitter there . Any chance you went to maybe... Kent? Or not, it's just that comment about the "stupid kangaroo" sounded a little too personal. (It didn't turn you down, did it? )

Yes I went to Kent, and no I did not go to Akron. I have some standards. Sheesh.

I know Kent's mascot, the Golden Flash, is not one based in reality. Still, and eagle with lightning bolts for wings is still more impressive than a kangaroo. Eagles: Feared hunters, national treasures, and all around awesome birds. Kangaroos: Oversized Australian rodents and third rate characters in Disney cartoons.

Fets, just ignore the damed Golden Zips fans!

How does Zip=kangaroo? Never got that.

Akron is the odds on favorite, but Toledo is always tough, and I think it will be a close race - Miami, Northern Illinois, and Bowling Green will be in the mix too.

Miami will not be in the mix.

Now if this were a discussion about MAC basketball.......
