(NCAAF) Buffalo vs. NIU,
Point Spread: 14.00 | -110.00 NIU (Home)
Result: Loss
T.M. Selection: Northern Illinois (10* TRADE-MARK).

Northern Illinois has plenty of new faces on both sides of the ball this year, but starting QB Ross Bowers is back under center. Clearly having stability at the QB position to open the year is a huge plus. Kyle Vantrease starts for Buffalo, but I see no advantage between these players. The QB position is a wash this week. Buffalo is the better team, but I expect it to get caught looking past its lowly opponent here and I believe it'll take the foot off the gas in the second half. No outright upset, but much closer than what this spread would suggest; grab the points!

T.M. Prediction: 27-24 Buffalo.
