The Ohio Bobcats (5-1, MAC 2-0) earned an impressive win on Homecoming weekend, pulling away from the visiting Golden Flashes (1-5, 0-2 MAC) to win by a final score of 42-17 after a competitive first quarter-and-a-half.
The contest began with a scoreless first quarter as both defenses gained the upper hand with solid play and a few key penalties by their offensive counterparts.
Ohio’s offense came out firing deep, a plan that had some success against KSU earlier in non-conference. However, KSU’s secondary won the early battles with solid play aided by a ‘Cats offense that perhaps wasn’t clicking early.
