With the exception of the Miami and Akron game each and every contest this week could have went either way. Not a great way to reshuffle the rankings but is was the most entertaining football on television.
We learned that NIU and Toledo better pray that they don't face a hot defense for the rest of the year.
Ohio taught us that the "Owl-Gators" natural predator is the Bobcat.
CMU taught us how 'Rebuild' is spelled and Akron showed us that a new stadium does not a football program make.
Finally EMU and Ball State showed us that often its just the right coach missing as they played a fantastic game down to the wire.
| Team | Change | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| NIU | 1 | Sure hope NIU's basketball team was there to see what a game with over 60 points looks like |
| Toledo | -1 | Sure hope Toledo's basketball team was there to see what a game with over 60 points looks like |
| Ohio | 1 | William Howe has nothing on Frank Solich, Three straight wins which devastate Temple's Chances at a MACC |
| Temple | -1 | Do you think the Owls have finally figured out who their Quarterback should be? Two weeks sooner and they lead the east |
| Ball State | 3 | Lembo for coach of the year? Easily the best hire of 2011. |
| EMU | -1 | Agonizing loss for the Eagles. Eastern Michigan literally has no room for error if they want to go Bowling |
| WMU | -1 | Getting to six wins should not be a problem, getting to seven, and a bowl, might be. |
| Miami | 1 | Solid, punishing performance over Akron, Miami is once again asserting itself late and once again they have a shot |
| BGSU | -1 | With NIU and Ohio still ahead it will be very difficult for the Rockets to separate themselves from other MAC teams hopeing to Bowl |
| Kent | 1 | They won the game nobody wanted to win, especially Central Michigans place kicker |
| CMU | -1 | This is what rebuilding looks like. Letting Kent move more on you than anyone all season. |
| Buffalo | - | They did not stink this week, they were off but that is something! |
| Akron | - | It gets batter for Akron, they still have a shot at Buffalo. |
