Tonight, only playing one game, Akron +1, over Ohio in Ohio. Akron has 4 starters back from a team that went 23 - 13, winning the conference tourney, making it to the NCAA's, losing to power Gonzaga in the first game. Akron has FOUR returning starters, and that doesn't include returnee sixth-man Brett Mcknight, one of the best first man off the bench in this conference. Akron lost by 5 to a very, very good Rhode Island team at home a few days ago, but out Rb'd them.
Ohio, on the other hand, has only 2 starters returning from a 15 - 17 team. Ohio did beat Akron at Ohio last year, in OT. Lost from that team are three formers starters who avg'd 34 points and 14 rbd's.
Really like Akron in this spot, and I am catching one point. I would have capped this at Akron - 5/6. BOL.
