Evansville has not had a home game since April 22. Ohio Valley scored in the 60's for the third time this season as they got back on the winning side of things vs. Peoria. Quarterback Matthew Kohn passed for seven touchdowns last week to bring his season total to 28, which is third best in the UIF. Kohn has thrown 31 more passes than any other QB in the league (238) and has only thrown five interceptions this season. Evansville beat Ohio Valley 36-34 in Week 2. Dale Jennings scored three touchdowns in their earlier meeting. The BlueCats defense is allowing 43.6 points per game, which is tied for 8th in the UIF.
