CFB GAME OF THE WEEK! > > 7-2 NCAA 10* PLAYS!
(NCAAF) Kent State vs. NIU,
Point Spread: 3.50 | -110.00 NIU (Home)
Result: Win
T.M. Selection: Northern Illinois.

I like Northern Illinois to cover the spread against Kent State in this game on Saturday. Northern Illinois looked really good all year and they finished with the best record in the MAC this year. They lost their most recent game to Western Michigan but I think that they were looking ahead to this game and will be ready to play Kent State here. Northern Illinois lost to Kent State at the beginning of November and it was a close game, Northern Illinois losing it by 5 points 52-47. I think that Northern Illinois is going to be looking for their revenge against Kent State here and I expect them to play hard since this is the title game too. Kent State has looked a bit shaky in their games lately. They barely won their previous game against Miami Ohio winning that game by 1 point in OT. They had to win that game to get into this one too so they put a lot of effort into that game and I think that Northern Illinois has been focused on this game for twice the amount of time that Kent State has been. Northern Illinois was dominating conference teams all year and every little thing went their way this year in their games since there were quite a few games that they just barely won by 3 points or less. I think it is Northern Illinois' year and I think that they are good enough to win this game and the title. I like Northern Illinois to cover the spread in this game.

T.M. Prediction: 37-34 Northern Illinois.
