AAA's VERY EARLY *Bowling Green/MSU* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER!
(NCAAF) Bowling Green vs. Michigan State,
Total: 53.50 | -115.00 Under
Result: Loss
This is an 8* TOTAL BLOCKBUSTER on the OVER between Bowling Green and Michigan State.

Both teams are coming off disappointing seasons and each will be expecting a much better effort in 2017/18.

Bowling Green: The Green Falcons averaged just 24.8 PPG last year, but they have six starters back on that side of the ball, including QB James Morgan. Morgan's favorite target will be WR Scott Miller, who had 968 yards and ten TD's last year. RB Fred Coppet is gone, but they have a stable of competent replacements. The Green Falcons' main issue the last few years though has been on the defensive side of the ball, allowing 33.5, 28.9 and 38.3 PPG over the last three campaigns respectively. 22 of 28 lettermen return on that side of the ball, but regardless, the unit is expected to take some time before making any significant strides.

Michigan State: After a dismal 3-9 campaign the Spartans will be looking to at the very least make it back to a bowl game this season. RB LJ Scott will be leaned upon heavily this season, as he finished with 984 yards and six TD's last year. Brian Lewerke didn't see much playing under time under center for the Spartans, but he did see some, so he is not completely "green" to the system. After averaging just 24.1 PPG last year, Michigan State will be eager to put some points on the board early and often this season. The defense was an issue last year, allowing 27.8 PPG and with just four starters coming back on that side of the ball, the unit is expected to struggle agains this season.

The bottom line: ATS stats are pretty much meaningless in the first week. We feel this is a great "situational" play as each of these teams pushes the pace from start to finish. Play the OVER.
