Bowling Green at Eastern Michigan

Eastern Michigan is the only MAC team to have never played in the league championship game since the conference began in 1997. The Eagles won't be ending that streak this season. They are 2-7 this year, sitting 11th in the MAC. That record stands at 2-12, dating back to the last 14 games. No FBS team gives up more rushing yards per game than Eastern Michigan. The Eagles rank 125th in total defense and 121st in scoring defense. Their offense averages 24.1 points per game, which ranks 95th. Yet the Eagles find themselves as a favorite for only the second time this season. The first time didn't go so well for Eastern Michigan as it lost, 28-23, to FCS opponent Long Island as a 22.5-point home favorite. Bowling Green has a better record than Eastern Michigan at 3-6. The Falcons have beaten the Eagles in eight of the last 12 meetings. The linesmaker has a strong tendency to underrate the Falcons, as they are 9-1 ATS over the past 10 times when receiving points, including 4-1 ATS as an underdog this season. Take Bowling Green.
