Northern Illinois at Wisconsin Milwaukee

It is going to be a tough season for Wisconsin, Milwaukee. They lost four of their top five scorers from a year ago from a team that was better on the defensive end, and didn't do well offensively anyway. Pais Gulley has stepped up, and freshman Jordan Aaron has started strong, but the rest of the Panthers are rather ordinary and inexperienced role players. They are just 2-6 against a pedestrian schedule with one of the wins coming against a team not on the Div-1 level. Northern Illinois only has two wins as well, but they didn't get their second win a year ago until game 15. They are still no good, but have improved over a year ago, while the Panthers are in decline and rebuilding. The Panthers have struggled against Mid-American opponents at 0-6 ATS in their last six. Take Northern Illinois.
