The Western Michigan Broncos are coming off of an outstanding performance against Central Michigan who they dominated for 3 quarters of football and ended up winning by 16 points.
They now look to build off of that momentum when they head to Toledo to play the Rockets in what should be a tight game.
Toledo just had an impressive win over the BYU Cougars by 7 points in a game they were awesome rushing the ball.

That game was at home in Toledo and they will be hoping they can show up in the same way this coming Saturday.
Western Michigan Broncos
This Broncos team has been solid for most of the season and find themselves at 3-2. A lot of that success has come down to their quarterback play which has been steady all season.
Senior QB Jon Wassnik has a 77.6 QBR and a 10-4 TD to pick ratio and it goes without saying that he will be of vital importance in a game that the Broncos should look to take advantage of this Rocket secondary.
Although the quarterback play has been good it does rely on a strong running game which has been rolling for the last 3 games. In their last 3 games starting RB LeVante Bellamy has rushed for at least 100 yards and has scored 6 touchdowns.
Look for him to play a big part here and to likely rush for another 100 yards in what looks like it could turn into a shootout.
The defense has been up and down this year sometimes giving up 50+ and sometimes locking down their opponents for scores under 20. They did, however, give up the 50+ pint scores against bigger schools so it could just be that they were outmatched in those games.
This game presents a decent opportunity for this unit to prove themselves as the Toledo Rockets can move the ball.

Toledo Rockets
After starting the season with a rough game against the University of Kentucky this Rockets squad has bounced back in a big way to win 3 on the trot.
Those last 2 games were really tight one score games, but came against a very good standard of opponent.
Toledo bullied the BYU Cougars in last week’s win by concentrating on the run game and dominating time of possession. They will likely go back to a similar play style in an attempt to tire this Western Michigan defense out.
It has been a game plan that has worked outstandingly well in their last two games as they also rushed for 436 yards two weeks back against Colorado State.
A lot of that success has come down to Sophomore runner Bryant Koback who was a one man wrecking crew two weeks back against Colorado State as he rushed for 228 yards and 3 touchdowns in that game.
He also got 18 rushing attempts last week so he should get plenty of run here and should be effective against this Broncos front 7.

Free week 6 NCAA Football Pick
At first glance I just wanted to take Toledo -1.5, but the over seems like the safest bet here.
These defenses are both pretty bad and I think both of these teams will come out to win this game. It would not surprise me if the Broncos get up early here by exploiting the Toledo secondary and thus forcing the Rockets to throw the ball more than they would like.
Look for a tight game with plenty of points here in what should be an exciting game for the neutrals.
