| Rank | Squad | Change | Comment |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Ohio | 1 | Huge win for the Bobcats. even if PSU was slightly depleted they are one of the top teams on their schedule. |
| 2 | Toledo | -1 | One of several "not close enough" performances put up by MAC schools. Toledo looked great in a PAC 12 road game but was unable to close the deal in OT |
| 3 | Northern Illinois | NIU Had one of the most heartbreaking losses of the week. But taking Iowa that close to the wire is a good sign for a program breaking in a new QB. | |
| 4 | Bowling Green | 1 | Very Respectable game against a ranked Florida, Bowling Green racked up 22 first downs against the Gators. |
| 5 | Western Mighigan | -1 | Not exactly the Alex Carder show people were hoping for. Four interceptions against Illinois against just one touchdown. |
| 6 | Ball State | 1 | Ball State made a statement about who they are in the MAC. The top four in the West are now Toledo, NIU, WMU, and Ball State, perhaps not in that order. |
| 7 | Kent | -1 | Kent was neitehr spectacular or awful against Towson. The Biggest concern might be letting an fcs team out gain you and go 7-12 on third down. |
| 8 | Buffalo | 2 | Alex Zordich looked like he could be just what the Bulls need this season. He threw the ball well enough and made few mistakes against Georgia. |
| 9 | Eastern Michigan | giving up nearly 600 yards of offense to Ball state. It makes one wonder if EMU is on the verge of relapsing? | |
| 10 | Miami | -2 | For one quarter the Redhawks looked solid but as good as Dysert can play the RedHawks need to do something about the running game. |
| 11 | Central Michigan | CMU came uncomfortably close to being "that MAC team" and it was the turnovers that did it. There are some good things happening for the chips. | |
| 12 | Akron | UCF is a solid team but three picks is still a reason to make you wonder if Bortles is the guy Akron needs right now | |
| 13 | Umass | 3 Yards rushing aginast Uconn? Welcome to the Bowl Subdivision. They have a let up next week with Indiana, their easiest non confernce game |
