C Michigan over Ohio U by 14 Good move by the MAC committee, featuring their championship game a day before the big boys get down to business. Another good thing is that Central Michigan QB Dan LeFevour headlines tonight’s showdown. The record-setting signal caller will leave Mt. Pleasant with a resume that includes, to this point, 99 TD passes, over 12,000 passing yards and 36 career wins. LeFevour is also a perfect 2-0 SU and ATS in MAC championship tilts, including a 31-10 win over these same Bobcats in the 2006 title game. The Chips have been installed as double-digit favorites at partisan Ford Field in Detroit and the numbers warrant it. The series dog checks in with a putrid 0-4-1 ATS mark with the average loss coming by 26 points! While Ohio HC Frank Solich is a solid 23-8 SU and 18-8-1 ATS versus scrubs (sub .400 foes), he is just 8-21-1 SU and 13-16 ATS when taking on an opponent with some bite (greater than .400 opposition). Meanwhile, CMU head man Butch Jones is a perfect 5-0 SU and ATS versus an opponent off a SU dog win and has held his own against greater than .333 opposition, winning 14 of 22 SU and 15 of them on the ATS scoreboard. However, this one is all about LeFevour and the senior, once again, passes the test with a 10-0 SU and 9-1 ATS mark versus conference opponents off a SU and ATS win. See ‘ya, Dan... MAC foes surely won’t miss you but our wallets will.
