Both of these teams have solid dual-threat quarterbacks in Finn for Miami and Navarro for Ohio. This one is going to come down to the defenses. The Bobcats’ defense struggled early in the season, but has righted the ship in conference play, surrendering 5.46 YPP, while the RedHawks have allowed 4.89. Even though Ohio has given up more yards, they are a borderline top-10 red zone defense, allowing just 12 touchdowns in 26 attempts. Miami, meanwhile, has allowed 17 TD in 23 red zone trips. The Bobcats are also far better at converting red zone trips into points with a 71% success rate compared to a 57% one for Miami. The Bobcats are the ultimate bend but don’t break defense. FGs instead of touchdowns will doom the RedHawks.
