Toledo vs Akron Prediction
Toledo comes into this game after a disappointing loss to Ohio last week, but they should be able to end the regular season with a win here. The Rockets haven’t been as dominant as we are used to seeing this year, but they are still towards the top of the MAC. Akron has just two conference wins so far this season, with one coming against lowly Kent State, but they have scored at least 30 points in two of their last three games. The Toledo offense was really bad last week against Ohio, but I like them to bounce back here. Take the Rockets on the road.
David’s Pick Toledo -8
