(NCAAB) Northern Illinois vs. Florida Atlantic,
Point Spread: -3.50 | -110.00 Northern Illinois (Away)
Result: Loss
Northern ended last season as a better team between these two and started this season better as well. The Huskies were only playing their second game of the season, and first away from home, yesterday and an experience Penn squad jumped on them early and they could fight back. NI has played better competition and are shooting 49.6% compared to FAU's 39.4 while allowing 40.6%. Tough for both teams to be playing a 1:30 games but Huskies game started at 5 PM yesterday while FAU tipped off almost at 8 PM.
