What to Know
Get ready for a Mid-American battle as the Ohio Bobcats and the Miami (OH) RedHawks will face off at 7:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday at Peden Stadium. Miami (OH) should still be feeling good after a victory, while Ohio will be looking to get back in the win column.
The Bobcats came within a touchdown against the Kent State Golden Flashes last week, but they wound up with a 34-27 loss. QB Kurtis Rourke put forth a good effort for the losing side as he accumulated 308 passing yards in addition to rushing for two TDs and 49 yards.
Meanwhile, after constant struggles on the road, the RedHawks have finally found some success away from home. They were able to grind out a solid win over the Ball State Cardinals last week, winning 24-17. The team accrued 16 points in the first half and coasted on those for the win. No one had a standout game offensively for Miami (OH), but they got scores from TE Andrew Homer, RB Keyon Mozee, and TE Nate Muersch.
Ohio is now 1-7 while Miami (OH) sits at 4-4. Two defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Bobcats are 235th worst in the nation in rushing touchdowns allowed, with 16 on the season. The RedHawks have experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the matchup with the 214th most passing touchdowns allowed in the nation, having given up 13 on the season. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
