Prediction
When first glancing at the matchup in the names, Ferris looked to be the clear favorite. But when examining the stats, you can see that Ouachita should be able to put up a decent fight against my preseason national title pick.
Where the difference will be made is the FSU defense, which has been one of the best in the nation over the last few seasons. With the ability to stop the run and force turnovers, Ferris can create short fields and allow their dynamic offense to put up points and force teams to play from behind.
OBU should put up a good fight, but it will be all for naught as Ferris advances to take on Fort Hays State.
Prosba: Ferris State 34 – Ouachita 14
