The Bowling Green Falcons lost their 2nd straight game and dropped to 3-8 on the season after being defeated by the Miami (OH) RedHawks, 49-17, on November 16th. Bowling Green got off to a quick 7-0 lead on a 62-yard TD run by Terion Stewart, however, the offense could get nothing else going for the rest of the game and could not fight back after the RedHawks went into halftime with a 20-7 lead. Bowling Green was outgained by Miami (OH) by a 346-258 margin and committed 1 turnover in the loss. Leading the way for the Falcons was Terion Stewart who had 71 rushing yards & 1 TD on 7 carries.

The Bobcats are 6-2 ATS in their last 8 conference games and 5-2 ATS in their last 7 games overall. The Falcons are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 games vs. a team with a losing record and 1-6 ATS in their last 7 Friday games.

Both teams have struggled this season, however, despite their recent loss at Toledo, there is no question that Ohio has been playing better football as of late which includes recent victories against Miami (OH) at home and Eastern Michigan on the road. Bowling Green has lost 6 of their last 7 games and have really struggled defensively, this season as they come into this game ranked just 106th in scoring defense. Bowling Green gives up points, however, their offense has also struggled as of late, being held to just an average of 10.5 ppg over their last two games and as I think Ohio is going to be able to put up plenty of points in this one, I think their defense does enough to get them a cover here. Good Luck!
