Great Game tonight,being I'm a HUGE Marshall fan this game is big for the Herd.These are some awesome teams playing in tonight's match up,should be a lot of offense.I can see why a lot of people are on BG because they got noticed last week on national T.V defeating No.Illinois....but Miami isn't to shabby either:

OFFENSE

Miami:
#5 team in nation in total offense
#7 team in nation in scoring offense at 40.13 ppg
#48 team in nation rushing
#6 team in nation passing

Bowling Green:
#2 team in nation in total offense
#14 team in nation in scoring offense at 36.38 ppg
#20 team in nation rushing
#5 team in nation passing

pretty even if you ask me,slight lean towards B.G.

DEFENSE

Miami:
#28 in nation in total defense
#22 in nation in scoring def. allowing 18.6 ppg
#16 in nation against the rush
#69 in nation against pass* <<< HUGE

Bowling Green:
#17 in nation in total defense
#12 in nation in scoring def. allowing 16.0 ppg
#28 in nation against rush
#22 in nation against pass

again,slight lean towards B.G.

Crazy Stats:
Miami +9 turnover ratio
BG even

Miami has the #16 ranked passer in country with this guy Roethlisberger

B.G. has the #22 ranked passer in country with Josh Harris

Miami QB Roethlisberger ranked #4 in 'total offense leaders'
B.G. QB Josh Harris ranked #3 and can also run(471 yards on the yr.)

someone to watch?
Miami Freshman Punt Returner Ryne Robinson,could be the difference in this game

Notable games this year:

B.G. 27 at Purdue 26
B.G. 17 at Ohio St. 24
B.G. 34 No.Ill. 18

Miami 3 at Iowa 24
Miami 44 at N'western 14
Miami 41 at Col. St. 21
Miami 42 Cincy 37

I'm personally hoping for an upset to help Marshall out but it really doesn't matter because next week Marshall plays Miami to decide the MAC EAST Champion...

I'm bias to B.G. so I can't pick a side,I might play the Over and just cheer for both teams(more cheering for B.G. though)...:D

The line in this game makes no sense at all as these 2 teams are pretty evenly matched with a slight lean towards bowling green. The main advantage for Miami is that there at home. You would think the line would be around -3 or -3.5 not -7

I'm willing to bet that's why everyone jumped on BG in this poll when 7.5 was thrown out there. I think Vegas knows how good this Miami (Ohio) team is.
