Before you consider your Central Michigan vs. Western Michigan picks or college football predictions, you need to see what the SportsLine Projection Model has to say.

The SportsLine Projection Model simulates every FBS college football game 10,000 times. Over the past five-plus years, the proprietary computer model has generated a stunning profit of almost $3,900 for $100 players on its top-rated college football picks against the spread. It also entered Week 10 of the 2021 season on a 28-15 run on all top-rated college football side picks. Anyone who has followed it has seen HUGE returns.

The model knows Central Michigan's ground game is consistent. Lew Nichols III ranks eighth in total rushing yards. He's racked up 915 yards and five scores on the ground and averages 5.5 yards per carry. The model also knows Western Michigan has one of the country's most productive receivers at its disposal. Sophomore wideout Skyy Moore has caught 57 passes for 762 yards and four scores. He could test a Chippewas secondary that gave up over 100 receiving yards to two players in its latest loss.

Now the model has simulated Central Michigan vs. Western Michigan 10,000 times, and the results are in. We can tell you that the model is leaning over the total, and it also says one side of the spread is hitting in well over 50 percent of simulations.
