Miami-OH, NIU by 5
@ Toledo, Toledo by 10
Kent State, Kent by 2.5

No road wins? 2 of our first 3 wins came on the road against teams we shouldn't have beat, statistically!
Tuesday game will tell. Beat Ohio, go up 5-3 MAC, sky is the limit. That road loss to CMU being up by 4 points under 10 seconds still stings!
Every game is a toss-up. Who comes to play?

Yes, I would not call these predictions , but more just mock lines. So if NIU has a 40 percent chance to win in 3 games, on average they will win just over 1 game. So many projected close games, with the final 6 games all having projected lines 3 or under
