Northern Illinois Huskies vs Toledo Rockets Prediction, Odds and Picks for Tomorrow, 11/05/25

The Northern Illinois Huskies head to the banks of the Maumee River to take on the Toledo Rockets at the Glass Bowl on Wednesday night. NIU snapped a six-game losing streak last time out with a 21-7 win over Ball State, while battling the wind and rain. The Huskies covered as a 6.5-point favorite, halting a five-game non-cover skid. NIU is averaging 21.0 PPG in the past two games, scoring exactly 21 points in each, after going for 14 or fewer points in the first five games against FBS opponents. There has been some improvement, but NIU must win out to qualify for a bowl game, and that ship likely has sailed.

The Rockets are 2-2 inside the conference, just a game ahead of the Huskies, but Toledo has very stark splits. The Rockets are 0-4 SU and 1-3 against the spread (ATS) on the road, while going 4-0 SU/ATS at home. The Rockets have scored 45 or more points at home, including an average of 45.0 PPG in three games at home against FBS opponents, including 45-3 win over Akron on Sept. 27, and 45-10 against Kent State on Oct. 18. Toledo has won three in a row in the series, while going 2-1 ATS. In Toledo, the Huskies have actually covered three in a row, though, and that hook is likely to come in handy for NIU. Take the Huskies and the points, but be cautious.

NIU vs Toledo prediction: Northern Illinois +14.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
