These teams will meet in the Mid-American Conference Championship game. Four of the last five meetings have gone UNDER, including last year's 14-13 win by Northern Illinois that went UNDER by 23 points. The Huskies have stayed UNDER in nine of their 12 games this season and only went OVER by a half-point at Western Michigan in their last game of the regular season. Buffalo went UNDER beating Bowling Green 44-14 on Friday while holding the Falcons to only 207 total yards, including just 60 on the ground. The Bulls held a 30-6 advantage in first downs and won the time of possession 44-16. The Bulls are #29 in the country in yards allowed (344.6 per game) and #41 allowing 24.2 points. Northern Illinois is #25 in points allowed (20.9 per game) and #27 in yards allowed. The Huskies are sixth from the bottom in yards gained (318.0) while scoring only 19.9 points per contest. NIU is 7-3 UNDER its last 10 games following a loss and Buffalo has shown it can own the time of possession using a lot of clock. Play the UNDER.
