Ohio vs Eastern Michigan Prediction 

Eastern Michigan has had a disappointing season so far and their defense has been pretty rough, but they are at home and have a chance for a big win here. The Eagles may struggle to stop the ball, but their offense is pretty solid and Kim is having a big year under center. Ohio has been very good for the most part this season, but they picked up a bad loss to Ball State in their last road game. The Bobcats should have no issues moving the ball in this matchup, but they have allowed at least 20 points in five straight. Take the over here.
