It’s the biggest weekend in college football coming our way over the next couple of days, as it’s time for the Conference Championship Games. MyBookie Sportsbook Regular Season Football Betting Preview | MAC Championship Odds #5 Oregon Ducks vs #3 Washington Huskies

While it’s only natural that much of the attention is going to be on the Power 5, given that those will decide who goes to the playoffs and who misses out, there are still some very good matchups outside of those 5 games. One of the early games on Saturday sees the Miami Ohio RedHawks and Toledo Rockets go head-to-head in a battle for the MAC Conference Championship. These two teams did meet up earlier in the season, with Toledo winning a close one. Despite them winning by just 4 points in that earlier meeting, the bookies have them in as a bigger favorite here, with the Rockets in as an 8-point favorite. The point total for the MAC Championship Game is set at 44.

Why bet on the Miami-OH Redhawks

The loss to Toledo earlier in the season put the rest of the year in doubt for the Redhawks, but they bounced back from that loss to win 5 in a row, surrendering a total of just 41 points during that winning streak. That left them with a record of 7-1 in conference play, which was good enough to keep them ahead of Ohio in their division. As well as winning 10 of their last 11 games, the Redhawks have also been a great pick against the spread, covering the spread in 9 of their last 11. One of the games they failed to cover in came in their meeting with Toledo, which they lost by 4 points in a game that they started as a 1 ½ point underdog. As good as that record is, it is worth noting that they are 1-7-1 ATS in their last 9 games played in Week 14 of the season. The UNDER has hit in each of their last 8 games played in the month of December.

 

 

Why bet on the Toledo Rockets

The Rockets came within 2 points of ending the regular season with a perfect record. They lost 30-28 to Illinois in Week 1, after which they went on a tear that saw them win 11 in a row, including all 8 games against conference foes. They didn’t have too many close calls over the course of the season, with their game against the Redhawks the one they came closest to losing. The Rockets have been solid against teams in the East Division, winning 9 of the last 11 meetings. In terms of the point spread, Toledo has covered in 4 of their last 5 games overall, but they are also just 2-7 ATS in their last 9 games played in the month of December. 5 of their last 7 meetings against the Redhawks have gone UNDER the point total.

 

College Football Expert Pick and Series Prediction

Everything about this matchup screams that the UNDER is the way to go here, but I am going to go against that and play the OVER. I also don’t see this one being as close as the earlier meeting this season, so I am taking Toledo to win and cover.

Miami-OH Redhawks 20, Toledo Rockets 30
