I think the home team is always given 3 pts. That means they think the game is a toss up.

The home team is given three points so technically if we played at a Neutral Site it would be a "Pick 'Em" game, however, it isn't since we are at HUSKIE STADIUM.

We might be really a 3 point, excuse the term, dog, but Huskie stadium is a 6 point advantage to the home team.

That is a tough line to take. I wonder what the over/under is?
My guess 79 points.

I'd wait to see how windy it is on Wednesday before taking the over. The Toledo game last year looked like a sure over, but the wind significantly effected the passing games (at least NIU's) which held the score down. (remember how Sheldon was wide open in the 3rd Q but Haldi's pass sailed right past him because of the wind)

3 seems very reasonable. If this game between NIU/Miami-OH was played at a neutral site (as it will be at Ford Field for the rematch come December :) I would consider it a toss up, so the 3 for home field seems about right.
Huskies will cover this though, Dawgs 30 Hawks 20

I think the Miami consensus is a very close game, with NIU winning it. Although, I think NIU could blow Miami out, or Miami could flatten NIU. It all depends, but I think NIU wins.

What it means is the game WOULD BE a toss-up if it were played on a neutral site. But it is not being played on a neutral site. It is being played at Huskie Stadium. Ergo, to wit: advantage Huskies!
