Both of these teams are terrible, and I’d love to give the IUPUI Jaguars the edge at home. However, IUPUI is losing on the season by an average of 12.1 points. The Eastern Illinois Panthers have won just 2 of their first 11 games, but they only lose on the year by an average of 2 points. Eastern Illinois are a lesser level of suck. I’ll lay the bucket with the Panthers.
