Two teams heading in opposite directions clash in MAC play as W. Michigan hosts the Bobcats. Western Michigan is fresh off a defensive struggle (and win) versus Temple. The win boosted them to 4-1, while the Bobcats have been bad and have posted a 1-4 mark on the season. Western Michigan has made some defensive adjustments and should be able to get in the Bobcats backfield, given they have allowed 10 sacks on the season, stalling out drives. Western Michigan can score and should be able to put points up on a weak Bobcat defense, but it takes two teams to push a total OVER in this range. I just don't see the Bobcats mistake-prone offense putting much up here. Ohio has played UNDER in 12 of their last 17 on the road, while the Broncos have gone UNDER in four of their last five vs teams with a losing record. There are 17 returning defensive players on the field today vs. 13 offensive (and one new QB). I like this one to play UNDER.
