Ohio has run 339 times against 208 pass attempts through nine games. Miami OH has allowed just 2.6 yards per carry over its last five games.
Under 47.5 leans on that run defense and Ohio's ability to disrupt Miami's passing game. The RedHawks have allowed 25 sacks through nine games, while the Bobcats have recorded 19.
Miami remains without its top two quarterbacks, Thomas Gotkowski and David McComb. Caleb Heavner is expected to make his sixth start.
Heavner has completed 68 of 125 passes for 769 yards and 4 touchdowns this season. He now faces an Ohio defense that has allowed touchdowns on just 13 of 27 opponent red-zone trips.
