Quick list of what dreams died and when this week:
Ball State:
The Dream: To be in the hunt for the MAC West
The Death: When the Refs 'Templed' you
Next Dream: Beat Toledo and maybe go Bowling
Bowling Green:
The Dream: To finish 500 this season
The Death: Worst kind, last second field goal
Next Dream: Don't lose to, and thus finish behind, Buffalo in the MAC East
Eastern Michigan:
The Dream: To go Bowling
The Death: Late interception against Kent or scheduling two FCS schools, take your pick
Next Dream: Get Bowl eligible, not that it matter with your resume
Akron:
The Dream: Don't go winless in MAC play, Don't go winless against FBS teams
The Death: Having to play Buffalo, in Buffalo this season.
Next Dream: Get five or more quality transfers form Notre Dame

|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | NIU | - | Huge scare from Ball State but they survived and are one win away from a trip to Detroit |
| 2 | Toledo | - | Did what you expected them to do, except this week their defense showed up, sort o.f |
| 3 | Ohio | - | OU sneaks by Bowling Green with a late field goal. Their problems scoring touchdowns nearly cost them |
| 4 | Temple | - | They wasted a lot of seniors this year but with Seven wins, on track for eight they should end up Bowling. |
| 5 | Ball State | - | So close to an upset at could have put them in the mix for the West. Bowling may not happen but a hell of a first season for Lembo |
| 6 | WMU | 1 | With Akron on deck a failure to get to seven wins should mean WMU does not deserve to bowl. |
| 7 | EMU | -1 | Speaking of close but no cigar. EMU was a finger tip away from coming up big against Kent. |
| 8 | Miami | - | Painful loss and a real letdown of a season. Those monster out of conference schedules keep them below 500 |
| 9 | Kent | 1 | Kent dashed the Eagles hope of a Bowl Game. You know, unless NIU chokes next week |
| 10 | BGSU | -1 | So they will not finish with a winning record, can they at least beat up on Buffalo next week? |
| 11 | Buffalo | 1 | Buffalo is +51 in points at home and -127 on the road. Could be a better team than their record |
| 12 | CMU | -1 | Coach Enos will be starting out next year with a nice toasty seat after finishing 3-9 this year |
| 13 | Akron | - | Well somebody had to make Buffalo look good. Coach Ianello better hope those 5 transfer rumors are true. |
