The Old Dominion Monarchs (Sun Belt) will face off against the South Florida Bulls (American Athletic) in the StaffDNA Cure Bowl on Wednesday, December 17, at Camping World Stadium in Orlando, FL. Kickoff for this game is scheduled for 5 p.m. EST with coverage provided by ESPN.
After finishing 9-3 in the regular season, the Monarchs will try to match their best season record as an FBS team with a win over South Florida (10-3, 2016). The plan will likely be to do just what they did during the regular season—run, run, and run some more. Old Dominion had a top ten run game during the regular season with 236.9 ypg. Along with 223.8 ypg via the passing attack, they had the No. 15 offense in the country (total yards). They weren’t too shabby on defense, too, holding opponents to 331.4 ypg (total) and less than 20 points per game. As for South Florida, they became the darlings of the media after recording upsets over two ranked teams to start the season before Miami brought them back down to earth in Week 3. Like the Monarchs, they went on to finish their regular season with a 9-3 record. However, they had a more balanced and productive offense, No. 2 in total offense with 501.7 ypg and 43 ppg (No. 2 scoring).

Our Old Dominion Monarchs vs South Florida Bulls Prediction
To complicate matters, we have to factor in two things for this game—neither team will have it’s starting quarterback available and USF has lost its head coach and many offensive assistants to Auburn. I’ve got more faith that Old Dominion’s Quinn Henicle (redshirt freshman) will be able to step up over South Florida’s Gaston Moore. Henicle led the Monarch’s to a 40-32 win over Arkansas State last season, running for 200+ yards in the process. Moore is a senior who has never started a game and his longest pass this season went for 13 yards.
Old Dominion has a better chance of overcoming the loss of its QB1 than South Florida. That gives Monarch’s ML a lot of value.
