The Bowling Green Falcons are well right now, but Akron is a different animal, especially at home. The Akron Zips are not only 6-1 against the spread at home, but they win by an average of 17.2 points and shoot 48 percent from the field. I’m not exactly tryin to step in front of those numbers and trends. Give me Akron and the reasonable number at home.
