Staff Picks: Ohio vs. Western Michigan

@ThePostSports staffers try to predict Saturday's game between Ohio and Western Michigan.

Chad Lindskog, Sports Editor (5-3)

Western Michigan 24, Ohio 17

“Western Michigan’s one-two punch at running back and quarterback will be tough to stop, but I’ve been wrong a lot this year so don’t listen to me.” 

Alex Busch, Asst. Sports Editor (5-3)

Western Michigan 28, Ohio 17

“Ohio has improved its offense each week, but I don't think the Bobcats’ defense will be able to stop the nation's leading rusher on his home field."

Luke O’Roark, Staff Writer (7-1)

Western Michigan 30, Ohio 20

“The 60th meeting could be a nice challenge for Ohio, but Western Michigan’s offense may be too much for the Bobcats’ young defense. I’m not a hater of the Bobcats, I just think the Broncos are slightly better.” 

Andy Kovar, Staff Writer (7-1)

Western Michigan 28, Ohio 24

“The Bobcats are finally starting to play better. That being said, Western Michigan is one point away from being undefeated in MAC play. Slight edge to the Broncos.”

Charlie Hatch, Staff Writer (6-2)

Ohio 27, Western Michigan 21

“Ohio gets one game closer to postseason play — and P.J. Fleck’s ego shrinks a bit.”

Tony Wolfe, Staff Writer (5-2)

Western Michigan 31, Ohio 27

“Western Michigan's defense has struggled, but Ohio's penalty struggles and lack of quarterback health will be too much to overcome.”
