Ohio is facing an opponent helmed by a young head coach, with a catchy motto, and who employs an aggressive, PR-friendly style.
No, it’s not the 2016 Mid-American Conference Championship game all over again, but it’s pretty close.
The Bobcats (8-5) face Troy (9-3) on Friday in the 2016 Dollar General Bowl at Ladd-Peebles Stadium. And just like earlier this month, Ohio will have it’s hands full with a quality team that has many of the same characteristics.
“They’re a good football team that is balanced and can do a lot of things well,” Ohio coach Frank Solich said.
