The Old Dominion Monarchs have won three consecutive games, defeating the Florida Atlantic Owls in Week 11, 30-16. Old Dominion was the beneficiary to 13 penalties committed by FAU, as the Monarchs' defense allowed just 308 total yards and only three Red Zone trips.

The Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders picked up a big Conference USA East win over the FlU Panthers last week, winning 50-10. Middle Tennessee’s defense allowed a season-low 155 total yards of offense from FIU, and West Viginia-transfer running back Martell Pettaway ran 11 times for 95 yards and a touchdown.

Old Dominion vs. Middle Tennessee State Prediction and Pick

Old Dominion has been playing solid football and could be in line for another road upset this week at Johnny Floyd Stadium in Murfreesboro, Tennessee. 

Monarch’s Freshman quarterback Hayden Wolff has done well enough under center in his last few starts, controlling the offense for ODU, and now that Middle Tennessee’s starting quarterback is out for the season, I don’t mind backing the Monarchs. 

Middle Tennessee’s offense was mediocre, and has now become worse, and Old Dominion's defense has been decent, even ranking 22nd in the nation in rushing defense.  

I’m backing the Monarchs to pick up the win on the road.
