Analysis
Gold Standard on Akron +3 The wrong team is favored in this game. The Zips have won two of their last three games, while the Falcons have lost four straight games. Akron has the edge here because they’re playing well offensively, averaging more than 30 points per game in their last three games. They threw the ball well during that stretch, and they’re facing a team that struggled against the pass in recent games, so expect them to air it out against this defense. With the question mark surrounding the availability of Drew Pyne for Bowling Green, that leaves some doubt in the team’s ability to pass the football. Akron is coming off one of their best offensive performances of the season in their last game and should be able to stack the box against Bowling Green to limit them. Akron is 4-1 ATS in their last five games against Bowling Green, so go with the Akron Zips to cover on the road here. Here is a list of key injuries for Bowling Green: QB- Lucian Anderson III (Undisclosed) is questionable. Has 245 yards passing and 161 yards rushing. QB Drew Pyne (ankle) is questionable. RB Cameron Pettaway (Undisclosed) is questionable. Has 248 yards rushing. CB Keyon Washington (Undisclosed) is questionable. Has 35 tackles and one sack
