Ohio Bobcats Poised to Take On Iowa State Cyclones at Home

Iowa State have lost their last three of four away games against the spread and won one game during the 2022 season. The Bobcats have found success having won eight of eleven games against the spread, with four in their last five at Peden Stadium. Last season, Ohio had one of the top scoring teams in the nation and averaged 40+ points per game at home. In their first home game of the season they scored 27 points and gained 300+ yards against LIU's defense. Ohio's offense led by Rourke should have a strong performance against the Cyclones and the Bobcats are favored with the points.
