A funny thing happened on the way to Detroit: the Buffalo Bulls got lost in Athens.
Buffalo was not the only program to run into turmoil, as Toledo was able to survive a scare in Ypsilanti and Bowling Green got out of Bowling Green unscathed after an ugly result.
All these results combined to create a tie atop the Eastern Divison, as three teams are now tied for the lead with three games each to play. The Western Division, on the other hand, found a lot of clarity, as it would take a minor miracle for anyone besides Toledo to top the charts.
