Last night I watched North Dakota come back after falling behind to rival South Dakota State. They opened at +10 and went to 8 1/2 and had a backdoor cover. The interesting thing about that game is that North Dakota was 4-1 at home prior to that game.
Tonight we have something similar. E Illinois is 5-1 at home and has good recent form (7-2 in their last 9). Murray State is no slouch with a 4-2 road record and good recent form but I think 12 1/2 points is too much for a team with such a good home record. As we saw with last night's game I expect the home team to make back some ground if they get behind early.
