This is a tough one. Akron I feel is going to be solid again this season and should compete for the top spot in the MAC all season long. Mississippi State on the other hand has tons of talent led by Dee Bost who in my mind is one of the most under-rated guards in the country. They also added Moultrie from UTEP whose proven to be a very solid player. Then we have their x factor the uber talented but often troubled big man in Sidney. I could make a strong argument for either side here. Still on the fence. Any opinions?
