Ball State vs Toledo Prediction


Toledo is easily the better team, an above average team on both sides of the ball, and probably should win this game comfortably. Ball State is terrible offensively and doesn’t play much defense either. However, Ball State is still in bowl contention and needs this game to stay alive, so I don’t expect this group to lay down. Toledo has outright lost 2 of its last 5 games as a double-digit favorite, and Ball State is 3-1 ATS this season as a double-digit underdog. I’m grabbing the boatload of points with Ball State.

Randy Chambers's Pick: Ball State +27.5
