Current forecast shows a "wintry mix" kicking in just before gametime (40% chance) with temps right at freezing (33) and falling. Passing? Sure, both Rothlinberger and Josh Harris toss it all over the lot most games, but it sure doesn't look to be good passing weather up Bowling Green way tomorrow night. So we turn our attention to...rushing. Big difference: Miami of Ohio rates at #9 out of 14 MAC schools (#57 in Division 1-A) in rushing (157 ypg). Bowling Green? MAC rating: "Numero Uno" as they say here in Tejas (#18 in Division 1-A at 210 ypg). Hmmm... Look below for defensive stats. (PS-I'm firmly in the Bowling Green camp on this one, just for the record).
Oooh, those Red Hawks are good on D: Bowling Green rushing D (national rank): 43 (138 ypg) Miami (OH): 15 (99 ypg) Could come down to short passing game and turnovers...which Miami(OH) excels at as well (5th in the country). (darn)
