Missouri State football (2-2) begins its final Missouri Valley Football Conference season this week when it takes on Youngstown State (1-3) on Saturday afternoon at Plaster Stadium.

The Bears enter the 2 p.m. contest on a two-game winning streak after defeating FCS opponents Lindenwood and UT Martin. A win would give the Bears their first three-game winning streak under second-year head coach Ryan Beard.

Youngstown State is in the second round of the FCS playoffs, but it hasn't gotten off to a good start this season. Since Doug Phillips became YSU head coach in 2020, the Bears and Penguins have posted wins and won their home games every season.

Odds courtesy of FanDuel as of Friday morning

Prediction: Missouri State 34, Youngstown State 27: The Bears' run defense improved last week against one of the better rushing attacks in the FCS and will face another this week. Despite a difficult run game, the Bears should find success against one of the worst run defenses in the subdivision. Quarterback Jacob Clark should give the Bears a lead here.
