Northern Illinois at Western Michigan
Broncos (+) over Huskies- There will be a contrast of styles when these two MAC challengers meet as Northern Illinois (7-4) with the better record plays much tougher schedule and defense then Western Michigan (6-4) who average just under five touchdowns a game. The Huskies are the higher profile club than do the Broncos who rank 27th nationally on offense averaging 455 yards per game. Although 7-4 NIU has been outscored on the season averaging under 20 points on offense while allowing just over 20 points. There are trends up the wazoo backing the Huskies who are 13-3-1 ATS in the last 17 meetings and that WMU enters losing their last three and 1-7 ATS in their last eight MAC games. Still, this spot was made for then their 'number' are far superior especially on offense. Weather permitting take WESTERN MICHIGAN!
