Buffalo vs Toledo Prediction
This line has more to do with how bad Buffalo is than anything to do with Toledo, so I'm not excited to lay double-digit chalk with the Rockets. However, Buffalo has lost eight of its last 10 games and has failed to cover seven of those games. Buffalo has allowed 89 or more points in three of its last four games. Toledo has a top-100 in scoring offense and offensive field goal percentage, so the Rockets should be drooling about this matchup. Toledo is bad defensively in its own right so this cover may not come easy. Maybe the over is worth a look as well. Still, if forced to pick, I'm going to side with Toledo in a comfortable home victory.
