The Toledo Rockets (8-1) play host to Eastern Michigan Eagles (4-5) on Wednesday night in a matchup featuring two MAC schools. Toledo has the best record in the MAC, and they’re a perfect 5-0 in conference games. The Rockets beat Buffalo 31-13 at home last week, and they’ll remain home to try and take down another in-conference foe. EMU is in the midst of a two-game losing streak, most recently losing 45-21 to Western Michigan. They’re 0-4 on the road, and it won’t be easy at all on Wednesday to notch that elusive road win.
Will Toledo extend their winning streak to double digits, or will EMU get their first road victory?

Game Prediction
Toledo has EMU beat in pretty much every category across the board. The Rockets rank 3rd in the nation in rushing yards per game, and on the other side of the ball, their pass defense has been amazing. The Eagles have been able to contain the pass, and the Rockets rank 111th out of 133 in passing attempts anyway. Even though Toledo should win comfortably, 19 points is a lot to win by, and EMU is 4-1 against the spread in their past five. Take the under here, as it’s hit in Toledo’s last three and because both defenses are strong enough to limit points here.
Final Pick:
Under 47 (-110)
