Eastern Michigan (3-5, 2-5 MAC) will host in-state rival Central Michigan (3-4, 2-3 MAC) on Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. ET at Ford Field in Detroit. The Eagles are listed as 1.5-point favorites with an over/under of 44.5 points.
Central Michigan will start backup quarterback Jadyn Glasser after starter Angel Flores suffered an injury. Eastern Michigan quarterback Noah Kim missed the previous game with an undisclosed injury and his availability remains uncertain.
The SportsLine Projection Model, which simulates each FBS game 10,000 times, projects the game to go Over 44.5 points with a 63% hit rate, forecasting 50 combined points. The model also identifies a spread side that hits more than 50% of the time.
Central Michigan's last game went over the total, and three of their last five games have cleared the over. Glasser is projected to throw for under 185 yards and fewer than two touchdowns. Both defenses have been prone to allowing points this season, supporting the model's lean toward the over.
The model entered Week 10 on an 80-77 run on top-rated college football picks. Detailed spread and money-line selections are available through SportsLine.
