Ohio's Treg Setty goes up for a shot after a quick change of possession during the game against Akron at The Convo on Feb. 2. The Bobcats lost 80-68.
For its past two games, Ohio has been charged with stopping an incoming team’s win streak.
On Saturday, however, it’ll be up to the Bobcats (13-8, 4-5 Mid-American Conference) to kick a team while it’s already down.
Northern Illinois (16-6, 5-4 Mid-American Conference) will head to The Convo this weekend sporting a three-game losing streak, which follows a 5-1 start the team had in conference play that, at one time, gave them the best mark in the conference.
