Ohio vs South Alabama Pick
Ohio showed resilience in last weekβs victory, but its passing production remains limited after 2 games. South Alabama has more balance behind Davenport and a backfield featuring 3 productive runners. The Jaguars should be able to sustain drives, control possession, and force Ohio to play from behind. The Bobcats can create problems with their mobile quarterbacks, but South Alabamaβs offense has displayed more consistency and big-play potential. Look for the Jaguars to establish the run before attacking Ohio through the air with Jenkins. South Alabama should pull away late and cover the number on its home field.
