Miami Ohio at Central Michigan

While these teams are both at 4-6, it is what makes this game huge is that the loser will be out of Bowl contention. The winner lives on for their last game to claim Bowl eligibility. While Miami has been competitive at home, they have not been very good in conference play on the road. The Red Hawks have not claimed victory on the road in eight straight tries, as they enter this one 0-8 in their last eight conference road tilts. Central Michigan finally put one in the win column last week to keep their season alive, and that should help them here. Zac Dysert has been at Miami for a long time, and is good enough to become the school's all-time leading passer. But, there is a caveat - he has thrown 50 INTs during his career as well. Miami, Ohio has allowed over 500 yards four times this year and is the weak link on this team. Central Michigan is strong and balanced on offense. Defensively, however, they are a liability as well. The road has not been Miami, Ohio’s friend, and all else being equal it is the point of separation here. Play on Central Michigan.
