Sacramento State has lost four straight by 46, 21, 29 and 28, and it scores 16.3 points per game, 130th among the 138 FBS teams. It has lost the ball eight times in those four games and taken it away once. Last Saturday it lost 38-10 at Bowling Green and gained 215 total yards. Its one win is 52-0 over Mississippi Valley State. It allows 30.2 points per game, 118th, and 348 yards. Ohio has won three in a row, most recently 31-14 over Central Michigan, where it ran the ball 50 times and held it 33.9 minutes. Ohio runs 41.2 times per game, holds the ball 31.7 minutes and scores 27.5 points per game. Ohio’s last two opponents, Kent State and Central Michigan, gained 266 and 275 yards and scored 10 and 14. Ohio’s two losses were 49-21 at Nebraska and 41-36 at South Alabama. Sacramento State lost the ball three times in each of its last two home games, and I’m laying the points with Ohio on Saturday night.
