Western Michigan vs. Bowling Green Prediction
I’m on Western Michigan here. I get the allure of backing Bowling Green at home, but Western Michigan can ill afford back-to-back losses with how tight the race is in the MAC for the two spots in the title game. These teams have identical records and WMU was the hotter offense throughout conference play up to this point. Give me the Broncos and the points.
Chris’s Pick Western Michigan +9.5
