Best Bet of the Day
Under 67 points in Western Michigan vs Michigan
Noon ET, ESPN
The Western Michigan Broncos averaged almost 42 points last year, but that was all against MAC competition and it’s hard to see them scoring enough against a big school like Michigan to push this game over. The Wolverines struggled offensively last year, putting up just a little over 28 points per game while shuffling starting quarterbacks throughout their 6 games. Michigan’s defense should also improve under new defensive coordinator Mike Macdonald. Take the under. Check out our full preview of Western Michigan vs Michigan.
Stat of the Day
The Texas Rangers lost their 50th road game of the season, 3-2 against the Angels, yesterday. They are 16-50 on the road and their 16 road wins are the fewest in the American League by a wide margin. Check out our full preview of Texas Rangers vs Los Angeles Angels.
