Toledo Rockets Analysis

The Rockets have won 3 consecutive games, and are looking for their fourth with a win over Northern Illinois. Toledo averages 42.3 points per game, 231.8 passing yards and 214 rushing yards per game. Quarterback Dequan Finn had 57% completion percentage with 119 yards, 2 touchdowns and 2 interceptions. Rockets are ranked 46 for power ranking, #24 for offense (40 pts per game avg), #37 for defense (16.67 pts per game avg). Northern Illinois has gone 2-1 (2-1 ATS) in past 3 matchups. Adam Beale, Jacquez Stuart and Maxen Hook are questionable for the game.

Rockets Poised to Cover Spread in Upcoming Match Against Defensively Weak Huskies

The Rockets have won three of their last four games and three consecutive home games, averaging over 40 points and more than 200 yards per game in their ground game. They face a defense that is one of the worst in the country when defending the run, giving up more than 30 points on the road. The Huskies have lost three of their past four matches, with their offense failing to breach 20 points. They struggle to balance their passing and running and face a defense that has defended both successfully. The Rockets have an advantage with their four-takeaway game, on average racking up two takeaways each at home. This, along with their offensive capability, should make the Rockets a sound bet to cover the spread.
