On Tuesday, November 12, 2024, college football fans get treated to a night on MAC-tion. Now, the Western Michigan Broncos take on the Bowling Green State Falcons in the Big Ten.

This game comes as Western Michigan lost to Northern Illinois last week. Now, Bowling Green has rattled off three straight wins after a loss to, yes, Northern Illinois. Both teams currently reside at the top of the conference with a 4-1 record (5-4 overall).

The Bowling Green State Falcons play host to the Western Michigan Broncos as 8-point favorites, with the over/under set at 50.5 points, according to DraftKings Sportsbook. The game will be on ESPN2, with kickoff scheduled promptly for 7:30 p.m. ET.

Western Michigan vs Bowling Green Prediction

Both Western Michigan and Bowling Green know the sting of losing to Northern Illinois. However, the Huskies are 2-3 in conference and not likely to challenge for the title there. However, the Broncos and Falcons have a real chance here to play in December. Here is where it gets crazy. Bowling Green lost to two ranked teams by a combined 13 points, and those were road games at that. Western Michigan had won four straight contests before allowing 42 points to the Huskies.

The Broncos and Hayden Wolff unraveled some at home. Can they rebound against a tough Bowling Green team that has all the momentum? Anything can and does usually happen with the MAC. Furthermore, the Falcons have three road wins. Coming home has to feel good as they battle for the MAC crown.

Connor Bazelak can spread the ball around. His almost 69% competition percentage leads the MAC. Also, the Falcons’ quarterback has over 2,000 yards passing on the season. Western Michigan will not have an easy time here.

Western Michigan Attempts To Bounce Back

Okay, Western Michigan needs to get it in gear quickly. Now, one of the big problems against Northern Michigan was the Huskies’ ability to explode and pile up points. Northern Michigan scored 21 points in the second and third quarters. Meanwhile, the Broncos could not keep up…

The Western Michigan Broncos can put points on the scoreboard (33.3 a game while allowing 34.7). However, it was not an easy week.

The big worry for Western Michigan is that run defense. Telly Johnson Sr. and the Huskies combined for 255 yards and three touchdowns. Northern Illinois held on to the football. That was the biggest key, as their +2 turnover margin was the difference.

I’m predicting a Western Michigan cover and Bowling Green win. The two teams will keep this close in what will be an entertaining Tuesday night of college football.
