Having problems beating anybody but MAC opponents

Probably mainly due to pitching depth, our good pitchers pitch the weekend and then we have back end guys midweek
Miami takes game 1 in the battle for first place in BG 5-2. Game 2 should start in about 30 mins

Miami wins game two 7-4 and takes the series! They will go for a sweep tomorrow. Miami sits alone in first place!

In looking at the box scores it appears that our pitchers limited walks and I think we drew 16 walks in the DH.
Miami loses 7-6 in 10 innings but still takes the series

This is kind of a big week for baseball as Tuesday and Wednesday we are scheduled to play in the Nuxhall Classic at Prasco Park in Mason and this weekend we host a 3 games series with Kent.

6-4 loss in the nuxhall classic against xavier
Can we only beat MAC teams?
Lack of pitching depth, if our weekend starters played midweek we’d probably have more nonconference wins

Sunny but cold day at Prasco (45 degrees). Started out fast with 4 runs in the first, then bats went quiet. We had bases loaded in the eighth but came up empty. Two infield pop up errors really hurt us.
The MAC is the 21st-ranked college baseball conference out of 30 while the Big East in 13th, and Xavier is near the top of the standings. Would like to beat them but it’s not a bad loss.
The MAC is also in the middle of the pack (6th of 13) of the conferences made up mostly of northern teams. Not ideal, but a little higher than MAC men’s basketball this past season.

13-4 loss in game 2 of the series
Rubber game tomorrow. Kent has long been a MAC baseball power.

Miami wins the rubber match 9-7 and takes the series. Unfortunately ball state swept NIU, so Miami sits in second at the end of the weekend.

MAC standings update, final series of the year vs Ball state could be a big one. Other series left for Miami is Akron, Ohio, and CMU
So the schedule favors us.
How many teams make the MAC tournament?
I think 6, but I am not for sure about that.
