On to South Alabama

Posted: 9/13/2026 11:20:57 AM

From Team Rankings . com

Predictions Update
Sep 13, 2026
• After beating Jacksonville St 29-27 yesterday, Ohio is now projected to finish the regular season 7-5 (5-3 MAC).
• We currently rank the Bobcats as the #4 team in the MAC (and #113 team in the country).
• Next game: Sat, Sep 19 at #107 S Alabama. Our power ratings give the Bobcats a 37% chance to win.

The bad news:
in a 4 point loss to a good Tulane team SoBama had 25 1st downs and 478 total yards

Tulane had to score with a minute left to pull it out.

Now this will be an interesting test to see if the Bobcats can play better on the road. That was a theme last year; not playing as well on the road compared to home.

South Alabama has a nice stadium in Mobile, but nothing intimidating.

Yeah, I know, helmet sticker and all but it looked to me like the Staff didn't want to put the outcome in Davis's hands at all during the first two OT's. I expect that he didn't have many reps this week. Hopefully, if he has to start, they'll have reason to show more confidence.

Winning at South Alabama with a freshman QB in his first start, without Brune, and without Walker and Christopher, if this turns out to be the case, os going to be very, very difficult.

Levi Davis actually made an exceptional throw in the second overtime that narrowly missed being a touchdown. That gave me hope for him throwing the ball moving forward.

It could spark the team to also over perform down that. If the data point is Tulane I do not believe they are as strong as past seasons. South Alabama is probably going to be favored by a TD against Ohio. With the injuries will the staff sit more players in this one considering its not a conference game and with the Jax St victory that seals the non-conference slate at 2-2? One injured QB could be cleared but they could make this a Davis trial by fire game.
