? Promo Code: | ATS200 |
This game will be played at the Stroh Center at 5:00 PM ET on Saturday, January 7, 2023.
Why Bet On Ohio:
✅ Bowling Green comes into this game a little overvalued after winning three straight games. Those three wins came against two teams from below the Division I level, and a 3-11 Eastern Michigan team in their conference opener.
✅ The Falcons are just 5-7 against the spread this season and will fail to cover here as a slight underdog at home.
✅ Ohio has a more balanced scoring attack, with no player averaging 15 points per game, which will help them in what should be a close game.

Ohio Bobcats
The Ohio Bobcats lost their MAC opener earlier in the week, falling against the Buffalo Bulls. That dropped Ohio to 8-6 on the season, as they head into this Saturday clash with Bowling Green. In danger of dropping two games behind the league leaders after one week, Ohio needs a win here to even their record in the MAC.
The question for Ohio coming into this game is who will step up and give them big buckets when they are needed. Ohio got 24 points from Miles Brown against Buffalo. But with no player at the 15 points per game mark this season, the question of who will deliver for them remains.
Bowling Green Falcons
Bowling Green got a win in their first MAC basketball game of 2023, beating Eastern Michigan by 26 points. They held Emoni Bates, one of the most electrifying players in the conference, to just 15 points on a miserable 2/14 from the field. Here, Bowling Green will aim for a similar defensive performance to get to 2-0 in conference play.
Bowling Green will also be hoping for an offensive performance like the one they enjoyed against Eastern Michigan. The Falcons shot over 50% from the field and over 40% from three-point range. That may be harder to accomplish against a more defensively capable Ohio team, but another strong shooting game could move Bowling Green back to the top of the MAC standings.
