Free College Football Pick for Saturday 10-21-17

Free College Football PickMy free college football pick for Saturday takes us to Ypsilanti, Michigan.  A state rivalry and a MAC rivalry all rolled up into one in Ypsilanti, as Western Michigan visits Eastern Michigan.  Kickoff at Rynearson Stadium is set for 2 PM ET on Saturday.

Western Michigan has dominated this series, winning the last three by 44, 30, and 14 points.  The 14-point win was from last season.  You can see how the talent gap has closed.

Eastern Michigan is an improved team.  They are coming off a three-game road trip.  EMU went 0-3 SU, but 3-0 ATS on the trip.  They were +14 at Kentucky and lost by just four points.  EMU was +13 at Toledo and lost by just five points.  They ended as +4.5 dogs at Army, but lost by just a single point.

Western Michigan is being overvalued, as is evident by its 2-5 ATS ledger.  Clearly these are not PJ Fleck’s Broncos of years past.  In WMU’s last contest, they lost 14-13 as 14-point home chalk against Akron.

The Broncos could also be over-confident considering how they have dominated this series.  That would be a mistake.  Eastern Michigan is an improved team, and the talent gap has closed.

My line on this game is a pick’em, so I see some value here.

Take #334 Eastern Michigan +3 (-110), as they finally break through and beat Western Michigan.
