T.M. Selection: Bowling Green.

I like Bowling Green to cover the spread against Northern Illinois in this game on Tuesday. Bowling Green has lost 2 games in a row but I like them to bounce back in this game. Those 2 losses were both against the 2 best teams in their conference who have 6 total losses between them and 26 wins. Bowling Green has had a much tougher schedule than Northern Illinois has and I think they are just the better team here. Northern Illinois has won 2 games in a row but they have faced teams that are much weaker than the teams Bowling Green has faced and I don't think Northern Illinois is going to be ready for Bowling Green here. Northern Illinois has only scored 70+ points in 1 of their previous 4 games and that has been a common theme for them all year. They don't put up a lot of points in their games and I think Bowling Green is going to outscore them by a lot here. Northern Illinois has given up 70+ points in 2 of their previous 3 games and I don't think they will be able to do anything on defense to slow Bowling Green down. Bowling Green has put up 70+ points in 13 games in a row and they have even put 100+ point in 2 of those games. Lately they have been putting up 80+ points in a lot of their games and I think they are going to do the same here. Bowling Green has had 2 tough teams to face in a row and they will feel like they are getting a break in this game. I expect them to use this opportunity to get back on track with their conference play. I think Bowling Green has a much better offense than Northern Illinois does and I expect that to make a difference here. Bowling Green will outscore them by a lot in this game. I like Bowling Green to cover the spread here.

T.M. Prediction: 86-73 Bowling Green.
