    Ohio U was last D-I team to play game when they beat San Francisco in opener; they lost in overtime at Butler last year, 64-63. Butler is 3-0, 15-5 in their last twenty games since 4-9 start last year, but this is their first road game.

    -- Fordham and Iona split their last six games, with Iona winning last two, by 8,3 points. Gaels are not very reliable when laying 10+ points, but Rams are 1-2 this year, with losses by 15,16 points. Iona's conference opener is Sunday vs Rider.

    Thursday's game
    MAC Championship Game (Ford Field, Detroit)
    Miami and Toledo met exactly one month ago tonight, on Wednesday, November 3, with Miami earning 23-16 home win, as 6-point favorites; Rockets outrushed their opponent, 177-76, game was tied 13-all at half, but the Red Hawks forced four turnovers (+3) and passed for 295 yards in the win.

    This is domed stadium, so weather is no factor.

    Miami won this event last year, their first appearance in MAC title game, 49-27 over Bowling Green. Toledo is 1-3 in this game, losing 49-45 to Marshall two years ago in their last appearance. Average total in the seven MAC championship games has been 61.7.; last year's game was first time in six years it was decided by more than six points; losing side averaged 36 ppg in last three. .

      Cavaliers @ Nuggets-- Cleveland gave up 120 to the Suns last night, just their second loss in last 11 games- they lost both meetings vs Denver last year, by 4,12 points. Nuggets won six of last seven games and are
      5-2 vs spread in last seven at home. Last six Denver games stayed under the total.
