Western Michigan vs. Akron: Week 11 Betting Odds, Prediction
The Zips have lost seven straight since beating Robert Morris in Week 2, when a fan helped call plays during Akron's first drive. Perhaps the football gods are punishing Akron for their actions in not taking the game seriously enough, but the Zips have only three chances left to avoid going undefeated in MAC play. Akron has come close to winning a couple of times, including last week in a 28-20 defeat against Ohio.
