Ohio Bobcats vs. Eastern Michigan Eagles Prediction

I’m on the Eagles and the points here. Ohio hasn’t performed all that well on the road this season, and when I thought maybe it was their step up spots they’ve struggled in, they lose outright on the road against Ball State as 14.5-point favorites. The Eagles aren’t world-beaters, but they’ve done well in the underdog role in the past and I think they can at least keep it respectable here. Give me Eastern Michigan and the points.
