Key Stats

Buffalo

The Bulls are subpar in the passing game, but their offense has done just enough recently. Buffalo has engaged in some low-scoring affairs, but out of their last four games, they’ve committed one or zero turnovers in three, disregarding a rough performance versus Bowling Green.

On defense, the Bulls were excellent last week, holding Kent State to 78 passing yards and 86 rushing yards. They give up only 207.8 yards per game, which is better than the college football average of 227.8. They also allow 10.9 yards per completion, which is the 32nd-fewest in the country. Overall, they haven’t been great, but last week is a positive sign.

Toledo

The Rockets are a ground-and-pound team, ranked ninth in yards per rush with 5.5 per carry. They also average 42.4 rushing attempts per contest, which is the 15th-highest in the nation. Regarding total yards, they average the third-most rushing yards per game, with 234.2 yards on the ground on average. They are efficient in the passing game, too, but they love to run the ball, and that shouldn’t change versus the Bulls.

Game Prediction

The Rockets are the much stronger team, especially offensively, but they have covered just one of their past six games. On the other side, Buffalo has done well against the spread, but the best bet here is the under. The under has hit in the Bulls’ previous four and in the Rockets’ last two. Toledo’s heavy run game plan should shave a lot of time off the clock, and their defense should contain Buffalo, so expect fewer than 52 points in this one.

Pick: Under 51.5 (-115)
