Northern Illinois scored the most points it has scored in regulation all season when the teams met for the first time this season. Bowling Green still won, 92-83, covering as a 6 1/2-point road favorite. The price is cheap to back the Falcons again this time at home.

Bowling Green averages nearly 20 points more per game than Northern Illinois. The Huskies, 6-13 overall, rank 326th in scoring at 63.4 points a game.

The Huskies, though, are off a 75-56 road upset win against Western Michigan while Bowling Green lost 78-74 as small road chalk to Central Michigan in its last game.

Look for the Falcons, 11-11 on the season, to bounce back against this inferior foe. The Falcons have defeated the Huskies five straight times.
