Both teams enter with 5-6 ATS records in 2024. Toledo is favored by 8 points despite being 1-3 ATS in their last four games as favorites. The total sits at 48-49 points across major sportsbooks, with both teams trending toward overs this season (Akron 8-3, Toledo 7-4).

Akron's Outlook:

  • Coach Joe Moorhead's job security is questionable after minimal progress in three years
  • Offense averages just 20.4 points per game (second-last in MAC)
  • QB Ben Finley leads offense with WR Adrian Norton (831 yards, 7 TDs) as primary target
  • Coming off season-best 38-point performance vs Kent State

Toledo's Outlook:

  • Already bowl eligible with 15th straight winning season
  • QB Tucker Gleason: 20 touchdown passes
  • WR Jerjuan Newton: 868 yards, 10 touchdowns
  • Safety Maxen Hook: Defensive playmaker with 16 tackles last game
  • Ranks third in MAC scoring despite ninth in rushing

Best Bets:

  • Toledo -8.0 (Caesars)
  • Over 48.5 (FanDuel)

Toledo's superior offense and consistent program stability under Coach Jason Candle should prove too much for a struggling Akron program. Weather forecast calls for mid-30s temperatures with wind - typical late November MAC conditions.
