The Ohio Bobcats (3-1) are set to road trip about three hours northwest to Bowling Green Falcons (1-2) country for an early—but important—MAC East battle this week. Both teams enter the season as MAC East hopefuls and a win here has significant implications for the tiebreaker scenario, effectively putting the loser two games back of the winner after the first conference game of the year.
Last season, Ohio beat the Falcons to win its seventh straight MAC game and the MAC East crown.
Approaching the 2023 match, both teams are in different places with some new faces and this should play out differently for those changes.
