Here's the SOS for each of the MAC teams, based on last season's records. I've put them in order based on the MAC SOS. It almost matches the predicted orders of the teams in each division; the team with the toughest SOS should finish last and the one with easiest SOS should finish first. Kent and UMass are the obvious glitch in the East. Akron's 12 opponents were 76-39 last year; any wonder most everybody has them struggling to get more than one win this season?
