Sacramento State hits the road for Mount Pleasant, and its first trip to face Central Michigan since joining the MAC. Normally, this time of the year can be tricky with weather, as snow and wind can occur. However, it will be very pleasant, so that is not in the equation for Wednesday's game.
The Hornets have played hard for head coach Alonzo Carter despite the fact Sac State is no longer in the mix for any postseason work. Sac State nearly stunned Toledo, falling 20-17 as a 25.5-point underdog. That came on the heels of a 31-10 win over Kent State, its first against an FBS opponent. Improvement on defense has helped the Hornets be more competitive, allowing just 15.0 PPG in the past two games. CMU won 35-7 against rival Eastern Michigan, and the Under is 3-1 in the past four games for the Chips, too. Let's go low, and feel good about it.
Sacramento State vs Central Michigan prediction: Under 43.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable to 43 (-110).
