An automatic bid to the NCAA Division II playoffs is on the line Saturday as Findlay visits Ashland to determine the Great Midwest Athletic Conference champion.
Findlay (9-0, 7-0 G-MAC) enters the game ranked ninth nationally in the AFCA coaches' poll, while Ashland (8-1, 7-0) sits at No. 15. While both teams have one more game to play, the winner Saturday will be guaranteed the conference championship due to the head-to-head tiebreaker.
Both teams thrive on defense, with Findlay sitting fourth in D2 in total defense at 235.9 yards allowed per game and Ashland fifth at 247.8. The Oilers are allowing only 12 points per game and the Eagles 15, so scoring will be at a premium Saturday.
Ashland has won 10 of the 12 meetings between the schools and handed Findlay its first defeat of the 2024 season. Can the Eagles do it again this year?
