Akron at Ohio College Football Betting Picks For 9/28/2024
The Akron Zips are set to take on the Ohio Bobcats on September 28, 2024, at 3:30 pm ET, with the Zips opening as 12 point underdogs according to DraftKings Sportsbook. Early betting trends show 53% of spread bets favoring Akron, while Ohio has garnered 47% of the bets. The total has been set at 46 and has seen 92% of bets leaning towards the over. Here, we make our prediction for Akron vs Ohio as both teams look to start conference play in the MAC on the right foot.
Akron Looks For First FBS Win In MAC Opener
Through non-conference play, the Akron Zips have gone 1-3, with their lone win coming against an FCS squad in Colgate. The Zips have struggled to generate much offense in their three games against FBS opponents this year. But to be fair, their three FBS opponents during non-conference play were Ohio State, Rutgers, and South Carolina. Against a non-power conference FBS school for the first time this season, it will be interesting to see what the Zips can do here against Ohio as sizable underdogs.
Ohio Gearing Up For MAC Play After 2-2 Start
The Ohio Bobcats split their first four games of this season, winning twice at home and losing twice on the road. Just like Akron, Ohio went winless against power conference opponents in non-conference play, losing to Syracuse and Kentucky. But the Bobcats are 2-0 against all other opponents and they will hope that facing a relatively weak Akron team will lead to a win in their first conference game of the 2024 season. For that to happen, running back Anthony Tyus III will need to continue to produce after averaging a touchdown per game in the non-conference season.
Akron vs Ohio Best Bet
Akron should have their best chance to defeat an FBS opponent so far this season in Saturday's Akron vs Ohio matchup in the MAC. But when your best chance at getting a win against previous opponents was slim to none, any probability will seem better by comparison. In this game, we will take the Ohio Bobcats to win and cover the spread as a heavy favorite against a Zips team that will likely still struggle to move the ball against Ohio's stout defense.
