Bobcats are 6-2 ATS vs. a team with a winning record. Bobcats are 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games as an underdog. Huskies are 6-2-1 ATS in their last 9 games after allowing less than 20 points in their previous game. Huskies are 11-5-1 ATS in their last 17 conference games.

My Prediction: This will be the first meeting between these two MAC schools in 2 years as Northern Illinois takes on Ohio for the MAC Championship game. Both teams can put up some points and with this game being played indoors on turf, the total of 68.5 might be low. Ohio does have the advantage on defense. They allow 10 less points a game than the Huskies. It’s going to come down to who wants it more. The Bobcats play well when they are the underdogs. They have covered 10 of their last 11 as dogs. I’ll take the Bobcats to make enough stops on defense to win this game or at least cover a close one. Ohio +4 CLICK HERE TO BET THE MAC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME OR
