The play tonight is Akron+3.5/think they could win this .Marshall has won just 2 in the last 9 su.Akron is 2-7 su on the road ,but has won 3of 4,the last a loss to C.Mich,a team that is the MAC 'S best right know with a great big man in Kaman.Like the size match up here,Akron had no awnser for kaman,and out rebounded C.Mich.They don't face anybody that big tonight.This team will get 90,two teams going in opposite directions,marshall mails it in. LOVE THIS ONE BIG!!!!!!!!!!!!

Could not agree more. Marshall plays Akrons kind of game, up and down the floor with little or no defense and also do not dominate inside where the Zips are are lacking as well.

Blackshear will get his points, but I like the Zips to pull off the upset tonight.

do not under estimate how bad akron is on the road one of those 2 wins was against oakland u akron on the road is like emu but marshal is much better than buff- some teams just do not show up on the road that have a,lot more talent than akron and lose to terrible teams gt,colorado,em to name a few- akron has played well but not on the road- gl on your play

GREAT SPOT FOR A ROAD WIN

GREAT SPOT FOR A ROAD WIN

This is not a play on Akron,This is a play against Marshall.It's hard to go with a 2-7 road team but you have a hot team who outplayed C.MICH in the second 1/2 and comes into tonights game -vs- a team that has lost 7of8.

I have an opinion on this game, I went to a mac school and played at one as well. Akron is not as good a play as you think. I think marshall wins this one in a blowout.
