Bowling Green’s Offense Impressed in Last Game

Bowling Green sits with a 4-4 record overall but their offense sure impressed in the last game against the Toledo Rockets. The offense put up 41 points and they ended up winning by 15 points. Connor Bazelak was under center and he completed 17 of his 27 passes for 171 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Terion Stewart had a strong game finishing with 21 carries for 99 yards and a touchdown. Two games ago against Kent State, it was much of the same as they secured the 27-6 victory. 

Bowling Green on the season is averaging 27.1 points while their defense is giving up 22 points per game. The offense is ranked 76th in the league while the defense is ranked 41st. In this game, the defense is going to need to be good. 

Central Michigan is Struggling

Central Michigan got out to a fast start to the season but they are suddenly struggling and they have lost three games in a row. In the last game against the Miami Redhawks, the offense scored only seven points, while the defense gave up 46 points. Tyler Jefferson wasn’t good enough under center and he completed 7 of his 17 passes for 62 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. He was also the top rusher finishing with seven carries for 37 yards on the ground. 

Central Michigan is averaging 27 points while their defense is giving up 32.3 points per game. The offense is ranked 78th while the defense is ranked 113th. They need to find a way to get the offense going early in this game. 

Bowling Green vs Central Michigan Prediction

I understand Central Michigan has been struggling heading into this game, but they are at home, a place they are 3-1 straight up. Overall this season the Bowling Green offense hasn’t been elite averaging 22 points per game and they aren’t going to run up the score here. The Chippewas will get better quarterback play here, and Central Michigan is going to keep it close. It might not be the prettiest game, but they will get the job done. Back Central Michigan against the spread here.
