*10* MAC MASSACRE on Buffalo Bulls.

The Northern Illinois Huskies are coming off a big win over the Rockets in Toledo last week, but they could be primed for a let down here in Buffalo on Wednesday night. The Bulls have won three straight, and have been pretty competitive in conference play even in the games they lost. I'll take the home team plus the points.

Here are my keys to game:

1: Situational/Motivational - While the Huskies are in danger of suffering a let down after a big road win, this is a big game for the Bulls who can become bowl eligible with a win tonight.

2. Injuries - Huskies quarterback Drew Hare threw for just 145 yards with one TD and an INT on 7-of-13 passing in the win over Toledo. He suffered a season ending injury in that game, and was replaced by backup Ryan Graham. The freshman makes his first career start on the road tonight in Buffalo.

3. X-Factor - Bulls are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 home games, and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 overall.

Selection: This is a play on the Buffalo Bulls (10*)
