DON'T BE AFRAID OF THESE NUMBERS......THEY SHOULD BE EVEN HIGHER. LOTS OF POINTS AND LOTS CHALK TO EAT, BUT I THINK THEY BOTH COME IN.
C. MICHIGAN IS AVERAGING 51 PPG AT HOME THIS YEAR, WHILE TOLEDO IS AVERAGING 27 PPG ON THE ROAD. C. MICHIGAN ALLOWS ONLY 10 PPG AT HOME WHILE TOLEDO ALLOWS 37 PPG ON THE ROAD. I'M NOT LETTING THAT DEFENSIVE NUMBER FOR C. MICHIGAN SCARE ME, AS THERE ONLY TWO REAL DEFENSIVE EFFORTS WERE AGAINST A 2-5 ALCORN STATE TEAM, WHO'S VICTORIES ARE AGAINST MISS VALLEY STATE AND ALABAMA A & M, AND AGAINST AN EXTREMELY PATHETIC 0-9 EASTERN MICHIGAN TEAM THAT AVERAGES 15 PPG. TAKE AWAY THOSE TWO GAMES AND THEY GIVE UP A VERY MODEST 21 PPG.
I'M GOING WITH THE MUCH BETTER OFFENSIVE TEAM, AT HOME, FIGHTING FOR A BOWL BERTH, AGAINST A TERRIBLE DEFENSE. I THINK TOLEDO HAS TO SCORE 35 + TO COVER. I DON'T SEE IT.
1st QTR C. MICHIGAN -3.5
C. MICHIGAN -17
C. MICHIGAN OVER 63
