Point Spread Pick for Toledo vs. Central Michigan
- Toledo Rockets -10 (4 Units)
The Rockets have the edge here because they’re playing well offensively. They have a balanced attack that has been difficult to stop, and the Chippewas won’t have much luck against them because they have been unable to stop teams from running against them, and the Rockets have been very good on the ground, so expect them to struggle defensively in this game.
The Chippewas also won’t have much success offensively because they have one of the worst passing attacks in the country and rely solely on their ground game. The Rockets don’t have to worry about the Chippewas beating them through the air, which will allow them to stack the box and limit the damage they do on the ground. Go with Toledo to cover the spread.
Over/Under Pick for Toledo vs. Central Michigan
