Western Michigan Broncos at Eastern Michigan Eagles Pick
Spread Pick for WMU vs. EMU
- Western Michigan -6.5 (5 units)
Western Michigan has the recent advantage as they are 2-0 with a 2-0 ATS record over the last couple of seasons. This is a game where Broncos defensive end Nadame Tucker should feast, as he has 11 sacks entering this week while the Eagles defense as a whole has recorded 14 this season. Noah Kim is going to have some difficulty being able to extend plays and that will make things difficult for the offense to sustain drives as a whole. All in all, go with the Western Michigan Broncos to cover the spread on the road to end the regular season.
Over/Under Pick for Western Michigan Broncos at Eastern Michigan Eagles
- Under 47 (4 units)
We have two uneventful offenses and two defenses that limit the opposing attack. When diving into the offensive yards per play over the course of the season, these offenses are not doing too hot. The Broncos are 128th in college football with 4.8 yards per play thus far while the Eagles are averaging 5.6 yards per play, ranking them 73rd in the NCAA. Both defenses during their respective winning streak shows this as well with Western Michigan allowing 17.7 points during their previous three games while Eastern Michigan is giving up 15.0 points per game in their last two games played. The under has hit in seven of the 11 Western Michigan games as well as in six if the 11 Eastern Michigan games this season, so go with the under as the better bet here.
