Cincinnati 45 , Miami (Oh) 3

Head of the Class
Miami (Oh), Buffalo, Northern Illinois, Toledo
Strange group, but these teams have already had great success in MAC play, if not outside of it. NIU and Toledo seem to be the strongest candidates in the group, and being that NIU has already slain Temple, they are in the front seat.

Barely Passing/Hanging On
Ohio, Temple, Kent State, Western Michigan, Ball State
Everyone here is at least even in conference play right now, but one loss will kill any of them at this point. Temple is obviously the best of the lot, but the NIU loss does some major damage.

Failing
Bowling Green, Akron, Central Michigan, Eastern Michigan
The most likely team to move out of this group would be Central, but they have looked like crap lately. Everyone else here is cannon fodder.

Week 7 Schedule
Miami (Oh) at Central Michigan
Bowling Green at Temple
Eastern Michigan at Ball State
