The Northern Illinois Huskies lost to San Diego State and Miami OH, and they play Ohio next. Northern Illinois has lost 4 straight games. Josh Holst is completing 59.7 percent of his passes for 376 yards, 1 touchdown, and 2 interceptions. DeAree Rogers and Telly Johnson Jr. have combined for 313 receiving yards and 1 touchdown, while Gary Givens has 3 receptions.
The Northern Illinois Huskies ground game is averaging 143.8 yards per contest, and Chavon Wright leads the way with 264 yards and 1 touchdown. Defensively, Northern Illinois is allowing 21.2 points and 328.4 yards per game. Quinn Urwiler leads the Northern Illinois Huskies with 64 tackles, Filip Maciorowski has 1.5 sacks and Muhammed Jammeh has 2 interceptions.
The Eastern Michigan Eagles lost to Kentucky, beat Louisiana, and they play Buffalo next. Eastern Michigan has lost 8 of its last 9 games. Noah Kim is completing 63.1 percent of his passes for 1,336 yards, 7 touchdowns, and 3 interceptions.

The Eastern Michigan Eagles ground game is averaging 154.8 yards per contest, and Dontae McMillan leads the way with 533 yards and 2 touchdowns. Defensively, Eastern Michigan is allowing 35.7 points and 476.7 yards per game. Bryce Liewellyn leads the Eastern Michigan Eagles with 49 tackles, Carter Evans has 1.5 sacks and Caleb Dobbs has 1 interception.
This is going to be an interesting game because you have possibly the worst offense in the country in Northern Illinois, while Eastern Michigan is one of the worst defenses in the league. It’s trying to figure out which side will bend. While Northern Illinois probably gets the nod because it’s won 8 of the last 10 games against the Eagles, I give Eastern Michigan the edge because of home field. It’s a toss-up between two bad teams so that’s where I look. Northern Illinois has also scored no more than 19 points this season. Yuck. Give me the point with Eastern Michigan at home.
