Same Game Parlay (SGP): Massachusetts vs. Ohio

• Sieh Bangura, OVER 96.5 Rushing Yards at -114

He has gone OVER this mark in his last four games, clearing 100+ yards in three of them, and in five of six conference games. He’ll be facing one of the worst run defenses in the country (No. 128, 201.5 yards rushing per game allowed).

• Parker Navarro, OVER 55.5 Rushing Yards at -114

He isn’t as prolific a runner as Bangur, but has gone OVER this mark in seven of ten games this season and in four of six conference games. But considering how easy it will probably be to run on UMass, I definitely like him to go OVER his TOTAL.

• Ohio -32.5 at -115

I hate massive spreads like this, but as bad as UMass is, I can see Ohio going off on them and winning this game by 40+ points. UMass lost three of its last five by more than 32.5 points.

• SGP Odds: +496

A $100 wager will result in a $596 payday, your stake plus $496 in winnings.

• Jalen Macon (Northern Illinois), UNDER 104.5 at -114 (vs. Western Michigan)

In his first start last week against UMass, the team only called on him to throw four passes (he went 3-4 for 73 yards and a touchdown). If they didn’t want to see what he could do against a dreadful Massachusetts defense, I doubt they will have him test a good Western Michigan secondary.

• Jordan Gant (Akron), OVER 83.5 Rushing Yards at -114 (vs. Bowling Green)

Gant showed the Zips what he was capable of when he ran for 176 yards on 32 carries vs. Central Michigan on October 4. Over the last four games, they’ve been feeding him the ball, giving him 19+ carries a game, and he responded with 92+ yards per game.

Bowling Green’s run defense gives up 148+ yards per game (No. 71).

• Western Michigan -5.5 at -115 (vs. Northern Illinois)

With Northern Illinois giving their QB just his second start against this defense, my expectations for the Huskies’ offense are low against a solid Broncos defense. Western Michigan’s offense isn’t spectacular, but it will do enough against NIU to win this one by at least a touchdown.

• Akron ML at +140

It’s Senior Night for Bowling Green, which could give the Falcons an emotional edge, but it’s also the last game of the season for the Zips. But Akron’s offense has been rolling the last couple of weeks, scoring 44 and 35. Since we are talking about two bad teams here, I’m going with the one whose offense is playing better right now.

Look for patterns/tendencies whenever you can. Just because something happened in the last four games doesn’t mean it will happen again, but it is a good indication of how a team/player will perform, i.e., Jordan Gant running for 90+ yards the last four games, etc.

• Akron vs. Bowling Green, 7 p.m. EST
• Massachusetts vs. Ohio, 7 p.m. EST
• Western Michigan vs. Northern Illinois, 7 p.m. EST
