This game is certainly not going to inspire Michigan, despite their opponent is in-state rival. But, for the Eastern Michigan Eagles it is a big opportunity to face an in-state power. I’m sure they will play above their normal level here, which at 6-3 hasn't been all that bad. The Eagles’ slowdown tactics will make it difficult for the huge blowout needed to cover this one, as evidenced by their 47-44 upset of Purdue. At 11-0 the Wolverines have a couple of soft games before getting down to business with the start of conference play. The Eagles have been great after a loss at 7-1 ATS in their last eight when following a setback, and will keep the pace slow enough here to stay inside big number. Take the double-digits and go with Eastern Michigan to cover.
