MAC Winner

Ohio: D.J. Cooper and Co. made a run in last year's tournament. Their two losses in MAC play were to Akron. 

MAC Runner Up

Akron: PG Alex Abreu recently got suspend from the team. The Zips could still make it to the final since they start off in the semis, but winning the tournament will be difficult. 

MAC Sleeper

Bowling Green: The road to the Semis isn't to challenging. Watch out for Jordon Crawford, he may be 5'6, but the man can score.
