Eastern Michigan got its second win of the season using a balanced offense while defeating Northern Illinois 16-10 on Saturday. Noah Kim threw for 147 yards and a TD with one interception, and Dontae McMillan ran for 104 yards on 23 carries for the Eagles, whose defense easily had its best showing of the season. The Eagles are 4-1 ATS in their past five games and 8-3 ATS in their past 11 October games. Miami has won three in a row, but the competition has been average at best as the victories were against FCS school Lindenwood, Northern Illinois, and Akron. The Redhawks lost their first three games while allowing 34.3 points per game against tougher foes. Eastern Michigan lost its previous game in overtime, 31-30, at Buffalo, as Kim and McMillan were a good combo again. Kim passed for 168 yards and two TDs with no picks, and McMillan rushed for 117 yards on 20 carries. The Eagles are capable of keeping this one close. Take the points with Eastern Michigan.
