There doesn't seem to be a line yet.

Team rankings.com has nothing except that Ohio has around a 98% chance of winning.

They have Ohio favored in every game the rest of the way.

It should be around where the OSU game was both in terms of spread and O/U. FCS game spreads come later.

Any word on Parker injury? Or anyone see him after the game? I was at the game and didn't see the initial injury, I guess it wasn't bad enough if they put him back in, but clearly it was hurt enough for him to be pulled out of the biggest game of his career in which we were hanging tough.

I'm not sure we're gonna get anything from Brian. Last week he said flatly, "I won't talk about injuries." I forget who he was reffering to, but he didn't consider it for a second. Just shut it down.

He was referring to Seegars injury. Which I believe is season ending because I noticed Hyatt was wearing #4 vs O$U

I did finally find one obscure site predicting a 38-13 win.

A 25 point win vs a decent FCS opponent would work.

I'm confident we got this vs. Gardner-Webb. Could they cause problems here and there? Maybe. But if we can play as tough as we did in the 3-game gauntlet, Gardner-Webb will have no answer.

Damn.

That's a HUGE loss. I must've missed that in all the lead-up to the game.

Giving away your jersey already, cold world. Would have to think that means he's done here? How often are they giving away injured players jerseys mid-week? Maybe a 6th year medical redshirt available? Zoiks.

I agree a big loss….however the edge is one position where we have some depth.

Herrmann and Marsh haven’t played much but they are decent.

Ackerman as a true freshman is one of our highest ranked recruits.

FWIW, Ohio is ranked 73rd by Sagarin while G-W is at 176, just behind Ball St and just ahead of Akron.

Wouldn’t mind a drama free game. Get some 3/4s in. No injuries.

Wouldn't mind a drama free game where we hang 50 and Parker and Sieh rush for 100+ each. :)

I have 8 tickets in Section 105 Row 18 - I'd love to give away because I won't be using them -- free of charge. Lmk.

At the risk of sounding like Jeff McKinney on the basketball forum, I would not take GWU lightly. In the first game of the season they upset #19 ranked Western Carolina. They always seem to have well-coached teams that give it their all on the field.

Odds Trader has like 37-15 Bobcats final result predicted.

There is a chance the home folks could come out flat after playing three power conf. teams including the national champs, thus a 37-15 final would work fine.

After that gauntlet, 21-20 Ohio works for me. I would have taken one point wins vs Northeastern and Duquesne during our history too.

Oh, don't mention that Northeastern game. One of the real low points of my Bobcat fan career!

Unlike some other MAC schools, Ohio under Solich never ran up the score against 1AA teams. Maybe because his run-first offense ate up so much time. Versus G-W Ohio is 3-0, scoring in the 30s each game, winning by an average margin of 23 pts. Ohio's RPO offense might score in the 40s or even 50s. I think the last time Ohio scored 50 against a 1AA team was when Buffalo was transitioning and Grobe's team beat them 50-0.

Ohio was RPO under Solich after the New Orleans blow out in 2010. The difference in the last few years is the defense w/ the RPO to be dominant on both sides of the ball.

Most Memorable Bobcat Events Attended
2010 97-83 win over Georgetown in NCAA 1st round
2012 45-13 victory over ULM in the Independence Bowl
2015 34-3 drubbing of Fiami @ Peden with 25,086 fans

Last match up, in 2016, was an OHIO win 37-21. Previous game, all OHIO wins, were: 30-3 and 36-14.

Ohio 59, Hampton 0 on 9/2/2017.

I am starting to see lines between 24 and 25.5 on this game.

The starting JACK is now listed as Jay Crable. We don't remove guys from the depth chart unless they are out for the year. Joseph Marsh is now listed as the backup at both the rush end and the Jack but I'm sure we need to be getting other guys in the rotation.

Something else concerning here. Jack Fries is off of the chart as well.
