The 2008 season must feel like it occurred a decade ago for the Bulls program who have limped towards a 7-13 SU record since, which includes this year’s 2-6 record both SU and in sports betting action.

A trip to a bowl game is certainly out of the question at this point of the season, but that doesn’t mean Buffalo won’t be getting up to play the role of spoiler throughout the remainder of it.

Head coach Jeff Quinn’s kids haven’t felt the thrill of victory since going into Bowling Green back on October 2nd and scoring the 28-26 outright road win and sports betting cover as 2.5-point underdogs.

They’ve dropped three straight since getting pounded by Northern Illinois, Temple, and Miami, OH. You’ll notice, all three of those opponents are in the running to get to the MAC Championship Game this season; the Bobcats will make it four in a row.

Ohio enters this Tuesday night ESPNU tussle on fire having rattled off five straight wins. It currently sits tied atop the MAC East standings along with the Temple Owls at 4-1 overall.

They just had their five-game ATS winning streak snapped last week at home against the Ragin’ Cajuns of Louisiana whom they only toppled 38-31 as lofty 17-point sports betting favorites.

Still, head coach Frank Solich’s outfit stands a solid 4-1 SU & 3-2 ATS in five home games with the lone loss coming against a Toledo squad back in Week 2 right after the Rockets got trashed at home by the Arizona Wildcats the week before.

With the big game scheduled to go against Temple next week in what looks to be the game for all the MAC East marbles, it will be interesting to see if they can avoid the look ahead and get up in this spot.

NCAA Football Insider Tip: The road team has scored outright victories each of the L/2 times these division rivals met on the gridiron.

Ohio turned the trick a year ago winning 27-24 as 1.5-point UB Stadium underdogs, but the Bulls laid the smack down in their most recent trip to Peden Stadium winning 32-19 as 1.5-point pups.

The underdog has actually cashed in three straight times in this series, but this one closely resembles the last time Ohio went off the board as a double-digit chalk winning 42-7 as 17.5-point favorites back in 2006.

Also pointing the way of the home team is the fact that they’ve rattled off sports betting covers in 13 of their L/16 MAC tussles and in six of the L/7 times they were installed favorites of 10.5-points or more.

While the Bobcats look to be the on the lesser tier of the MAC Championship contenders, Solich gets his kids ready to close out seasons as they’re a perfect 5-0 ATS their L/5 November contests.

Look for Bobcats to land the perfectly placed death blow upon the Bulls and then turn their attention towards the huge one with Temple in 12 days.
