Western Michigan Broncos at Central Michigan Chippewas Prediction
Early indications signify that the public is keen to hop all over the Broncos and spot the points in light of their electric start to the 2016-17 season. Nevertheless, we will have to go the other way with this one by virtue of the fact, we get a home pooch in a potent rivalry game. These kinds of match-ups are the most unpredictable, so we will go with there is the most upside. The Broncos’ stock is on the rise while Central Michigan stock is falling. If Central Michigan had won last week, perhaps they would be spotting the points. In spite of recent achievements, the book is astute to the fact this game can go in any direction given the robust energy in this statewide feud. Seemingly with Western Michigan’s recent successes, this game seems like a give-me for the Broncos in light of their dominance in hanging on to the Victory Cannon as of late. However, last year’s game typified the ferocity of the acrimony, as Western Michigan escaped Central Michigan at home in a shootout victory where 80 points were scored between both teams. With many bettors sweet on the Broncos, the Chips are in position to catch the Broncos off guard, just like they did against Oklahoma State. With all the hype surrounding Western Michigan thanks to their overachievement, the Broncos are in prime position for a let-down, a rivalry game of this nature is set to be the perfect stage.
