OUR PREDICTION: The under is 4-0 in the last four meetings between these two teams and is 6-1 in the last seven meetings between these two teams in Ohio. The under is also 19-9 in the Zips’ last 28 road games, is 37-18 in their last 55 games overall and is 35-16 in their last 51 conference games. On the other side, the under is 4-0 in the Bobcats’ last four home games, is 4-1 in their last five games in November and is 33-16-2 in their last 51 games overall. With Akron quarterback Thomas Woodson banged up and backup Tra’Von Chapman (five interceptions, five touchdowns) likely to start, the Zips will have issues moving the ball.
