Akron +4-110
*3 Star NCAA BB Hidden GEM* The Akron Zips are going to be tough to beat in the MAC this year. Akron returns nearly their whole team from last year. They have two terrific point guards in Robotham and Jackson. That's important against a team like Arkansas that uses full court pressure so often. Arkansas lost both of their star big men from last year's team. Bobby Portis and Michael Qualls are going to be tough to replace, and I expect Pat Forsythe and the Akron Zips frontcourt to have a decided advantage in this game. Forsythe is a good rebounder and a terrific shot blocker.
Neither team has been tested yet, but I think Akron has shown in the past they can win on the road. Akron may very well be the best team in the MAC, and that's a conference that is usually underrated in college basketball. Arkansas is way down from a year ago. Take Akron
