Ohio Bobcats

RB Anthony Tyus III has rushed for 595 yards on 104 attempts. He’s also rushed for 4 TD this season. WR Coleman Owen leads the team with 514 yards on 36 receptions.

Ohio’s defense has been right around average this season. The Bobcats allow 23.3 points per game. The Bobcats allow 331.8 yards of total offense on average. They’re also giving up 221.2 passing yards per game. The Bobcats’ opponents average 110.7 rushing yards this season. DE Bradley Weaver has stood out on defense, coming in with four sacks, 17 tackles, and four tfl.
Prediction
Ohio’s rushing game is very solid, and they have the 23rd-most team rushing yards in the NCAA. Still, their overall offense is below average, as Navarro has been shaky. The RedHawks’ strength is their defense, especially against the pass, which should limit Ohio’s total points, at least early on, when the pace of the game should be slower. Take Ohio’s first-half team total under, as Miami’s defense should make it difficult for the visitors.
Final Pick
Ohio 1st Half Team Total Under 9.5 (+105)
