Northwestern vs. Eastern MichiganWebsite Gambling Article by - Mike Rose - Oct 19, 2007 Brought to you by Who2beton.com The Big 10 tangos with the MAC in tonight’s Friday night affair, as the (4-3) Northwestern Wildcats invades Detroit, MI to take on the (2-5) Eastern Michigan Eagles at Ford Field. Both clubs were involved in high scoring affairs last week as Northwestern outlasted Minnesota by a 49-48 final count in 2OT’s, while the Eagles put forth their biggest offensive effort of the season but fell to the Ohio Bobcats by a 48-42 final count. These clubs have met only once, and that match-up came last year when Northwestern upended the Eagles as 17-point home chalks 14-6. E. Michigan had its opportunities to win the game, but turned the ball over on their final two drives of the game. This looks to be a much different type of battle this time around as both offenses come into this game firing on all cylinders. Northwestern has combined to score 97 points the last two weeks (including OT), while the Eagles put 64 combined on the board vs. Michigan and Ohio the last two weeks. Eagle QB Andy Schmitt completed 20 of 28 passes last week for 210 yards & 4 TDs. Wildcat QB CJ Bacher also comes into this game on fire throwing for a combined 990 yards and 9 TDs the last two weeks vs. Michigan State and Minnesota. Both guys stand to have big nights once again as neither stop unit should be able to limit them. The Wildcats defense has surrendered 419 total YPG and 32 PPG to its first seven opponents this year, and has only secured 5 QB sacks while forcing a meager 7 turnovers. That might not get the job done tonight against an E. Michigan offense that seems to have found itself the last couple weeks. That being said, the Eagles defense has been ripped through as well, surrendering 410 total YPG and 30 PPG. Northwestern’s offense shouldn’t have much of a problem executing its attack. SLAM YOUR MAN!!!
