Ohio defeated Bowling Green 35–20 in a double-digit victory. Ohio covered by 7.5; Game went Over by 5.5. The market closed at Ohio -7.5 and the Blue Chip model made it Ohio -13.9 - a gap of 6.4 points toward Ohio, of which 5.7 points were beyond the model's measured factors. That was an information gap - the market pricing something the model does not carry - rather than a measured edge.
Quarterback Drew Pyne threw three interceptions, including a 71-yard pick-six, which directly led to 14 points for Ohio and put the Falcons in a constant deficit.
Chris McMillian rushed for 89 yards and a touchdown, providing a consistent running threat that could be a focal point in future games to balance the offense.
Ohio's Parker Navarro accounted for four total touchdowns (2 passing, 2 rushing), exposing vulnerabilities in Bowling Green's defense against mobile quarterbacks.
The Falcons turned the ball over on downs in the fourth quarter, failing to convert a critical fourth-down attempt that could have kept their comeback hopes alive.
