In this article, we will formulate an Ohio State vs Campbell Prediction for this college basketball game on Friday, November 22nd, at the Value City Arena.
What a Bounce Back for Ohio State
It was quite the bounce-back for Ohio State in the last game. Two games ago against Texas A&M, Ohio State scored 64 points while the defense gave up 78 points. In the last game against Evansville, the offense scored 80 points but the defense gave up only 30 points on the way to the victory. Ohio State shot 51.9 percent from the field and allowed Evansville to shoot only 19 percent. Ohio State on the season is averaging 76.3 points while their defense is giving up 56.8 points per game.

Campbell Getting Hot?
Campbell had lost two games in a row, but they bounced back in a big way in the last game. Campbell faced off against Navy, and they scored 86 points on the way to a 20-point victory. In the second half, they scored 48 points. Jasin Sinari had a strong game putting up 24 points, three rebounds, and one assist. There were four different players that put up at least 10 points.

In this game, if they are going to want to find success the defense is going to need to step up in a big way to really put the pressure on.
Ohio State vs Campbell Prediction
I expect Campbell is going to be competitive in this game. Campbell is averaging 77 points and they are going to have no issue running up the score here. Ohio State’s defense has been overall good this season, but they aren’t going to have their best offensive game here. Campbell is going to score at least 70 points here and that will be enough for them to keep this game close. Back Campbell against the spread here.
