The Ohio Bobcats are playing decent here lately as the team was able to pick up some extra strong wins in the past couple of weeks and the Bobcats even proved they are able to win the close games. With the last game the Bobcats were able to come into the game and actually were able to pick up a win by a single point, which was completely different than what the Bobcats did last year.

The Bobcats on the season have been able to score at a clip of 36.8 points a game. The defense, though, is struggling by giving up 35.8 points per game. The passing offense for the Bobcats is getting 251 yards a game, but the rushing attack has managed to grind out 204.4 yards per game. Northern Illinois is not nearly a hidden foe as what they were before. However, the Huskies were a team that used to be one of the most feared in the land for a little bit. Now, the Huskies are sitting at a five hundred record and the only 3 wins the team has had is against teams that are significantly weaker than them on the season and that includes an 8 point win in the last game over Ball State.

With the Huskies the team has been able to score at a clip of only 17.7 points a game, which is bad, but what is even worse is the defense is giving up 23.7 points a game. The passing attack is anemic with only 134 yards a game and the rushing attack has managed to get 144.3 yards a game.

The Bobcats offense is not the best in the nation, but when compared to the Huskies in a head to head comparison the Bobcats are going to blow the Huskies out. However, what is even worse for the Huskies is the defense is not able to slow down the opponents that well on the season, especially when matched against some great offenses on the year. Look for the Bobcats offense to be balanced in this game as the Bobcats bring home the win. Final Score Prediction, Ohio Bobcats win in the upset 34-17.
