Is it me or is the MEC a bit unpredictable this year. My VULCANS win close games @ UC over two (UC&GSC) of the better teams and lose to an FSU team that gets stepped on by UC. WLU loses to NDC who barely got by WU and SHU and then the FALCONS lose to GSC. Can someone make sense of whether this is a down year or very deep parity ??
MEC, particularly among the top teams, is almost always a rough and tumble furball. Typically it's among 3 teams (WLU, Fairmont and UC) (WLU is 12-7 .631 over the last 5 years against Fairmont and UC...940 against the rest of the MEC) but this year it appears NDC is part of the party. By and large, I'd say the MEC is slightly up but not dramatically so.

Yea...slightly deeper. Top seems deeper, middle a little bit, and the bottom is probably a little worse.
Thanks. Now I need an insider's view of the CIAA, but in any case it appears those 8 spots in the ATLANTIC will be hard to come by. I believe I'm correct in saying that, unlike FB, league tournament winners automatically qualify.

And that's going to spell trouble for someone come March, because the CIAA tourney champ is getting in even if they're not already in the top 8 (whereas the PSAC & MEC tourney champs are likely to be among the collection of teams within the top 8).

We're a long way from that discussion.
Historically, too, the CIAA has a couple teams go on big runs.
