Ball State at Toledo (-20.5, 67.5)
Ball State running back James Gilbert (leg injury) has been upgraded from questionable to probable tonight. He is the team's most important offensive player, gaining 1,196 rushing yards this season (5.4 ypr) with 12 touchdowns. The Cardinals have a strong rushing offense that averages 226 yards per game and 5.1 yards per carry (versus opponents that allow just 4.6 ypr).
Toledo is an explosive offensive team that averages 39.4 points per game on 7.1 yards per play (versus opponents that allow just 30.6 ppg and 5.8 yppl). However, the Rockets have been a weaker defensive team than the 22.9 points per game they allow would seem to indicate.
