The line isn’t posted yet, but ESPN’s matchup up predictor actually has the Cajuns winning this one. Ohio should be home favorites, though.
This would be a big OOC road win. Can Napier and crew get it done?

It’s going to be a battle. They were picked in the preseason to win the MAC.
Gonna be a good test for us on the road. A win gives us 3-1 OOC and gets us already halfway to eligibility. I think if we keep momentum we can start to cure some of our attendance issues. A win there and I think it's completely reasonable to think we'll be in the mix for another western division title and another appearance in the conference championship.
When is the last time that after game one of the season the Cajuns could realistically say “every remaining game is winable?”
Will we win them all, probably not. But we go into every weekend believing “we can win this one!!!!!”
If we don’t turn the ball over I don’t think Ohio can beat us. But we won’t win being negative in the turnover margin. LL has to play a clean game and the OL must dominate theLOs. The DL has to stop the run.
The key factor in this game will be Special Teams. Can Stevie rise to the occasion and nail some big FGs?
If the Ohio game goes our way, it can set us up for an historic season. The conference schedule is navigable. And the great part about that is, we're still 1 to 2 years away from seeing what Napier can actually do. Should be fun on Saturday.
We will score on them. It all comes down to our defense. Stop the run. Stop the run. STOP THE RUN!!
We certainly can’t afford to leave any points out there. If we can get 3, get 3. I want all of all of our players to succeed and nothing against Stevie, but I hope it doesn’t come down to a last second kick.
If we could win by a couple of scores that would be fine. A nice, boring, comfortable game. Who’s with me?
It’s definitely gonna be a battle! Ohio dropped a close one, 33-31, on the road yesterday at Marshall bringing their overall record to 1-2. We better bring our lunch pail!
I like our chances if the defense can play well and keep their scoring down. Then we can do what we do best on offense, run with short passing attack, keep the ball and not let them get ahead. It will be our first test against similar talent so far this year. Should be interesting.
