In this crazy MAC basketball season nothing should come as a surprise. Yet a brief glimpse of the MAC West standings has us scratching our heads as Toledo hosts Western Michigan both sporting records of 3-5 in conference.
On January 19th the Rockets sat at just 3-2, but were sporting wins over Akron and Bowling Green, positioning them as a definite contender for the MAC West crown. On that same date, the Broncos had just given up nearly 50 points in the second half in a game against Ohio in Athens as they fell to 1-4.
