Toledo vs. Northern Illinois

The Toledo Rockets have averaged over 40 points per game on the season, but that average was formed early in the season. Over their last five games, however, they have seen the numbers go down to 36.2 ppg. Meanwhile, the Northern Illinois Huskies have gotten better on the defensive side of the ball as the season has progressed. Northern Illinois allowed 40 points or more in four of their first six games, but just 20.3 ppg over their last three. I think the combination of Toledo moving down, and the Huskies taking a big step forward will curtail some of the anticipated scoring in this contest. Weekday MAC games have also shown value on the UNDER as Tuesday/Wednesday MAC Conference games are 47-33-2 to the UNDER. Toledo comes in having played 14-2 to the UNDER in their last 16 games on the road after rushing for 275 yards or more in their previous game. Play this one to finish UNDER.
