    Ball St looks like a good home dog vs N. Illinois

    I think I'm gonna take the points but money line is tempting as well. Look ahead game for Huskies as they go play Toledo next week.

    Any thoughts on this game fellas?

    If you watched one minute of Ball State this season you wouldnt be betting this. Be smart.

    I haven't watched them play. But I noticed they beat Akron and Central Michigan. They beat Central Michigan on the road and Central Michigan beat NIU at home. I know this type of reasoning doesn't always work, but I am taking Ball State at home as a dog here.

    I will probably pass. I was leaning NIU, but it is hard to have confidence in either of these team. GL to you.

    Hey man you may hit but paying for that hook doesn't show much confidence in your pick. Just sayin

    The only reason Ball State beat Central Michigan and Akron was because of turnovers. They were out gained by more than 100 yards in the Central Michigan game, had a +4 TO margin, and still only beat them by a field goal.

    NIU doesn't turn the ball over and should be able to run it at will all night long.

    Took -1.5 NI on Sunday. Been thinking about buying back Ball at +3.5. I have it close 31-27 NI.

    My system says 29.5-29.5 so its supposed to be a very close game. I like the 3.5 and ball st as well however, i did a 4 team 13 pt teaser with ball st +16.5 under 75 and buffalo +17 and over 41. Shitty odds but better numbers. Im sure I'll still lose somehow.

    Ball st has a 20-18-2 advantage in all games vs N Ill, however NIU is undefeated in last 30 games when putting up over 45 rushing attempts, and has won 39 of last 40 games when allowing 24 points or fewer.

    How is that relevant to picking a winner here? You wont know either of these outcomes until after the game

    That was almost there. All but one. Maybe you put the whammy on yourself at the end there. BOL
