Ball State is struggling and has no balance with a running game that averages just 2.9 yards per carry. This puts too much pressure on QB Kadin Semonza (11 TDs, 7 INTs) to carry the load, and he's been sacked 16 times in five games. Kent State's offense is averaging just 14.8 points per game. The ground game is awful averaging a ridiculous 1.8 yards per carry with leading rusher Ky Thomas (139 yards, 3.0 ypc). They're winless, even losing to St. Francis, 23-17, as a 17-point favorite. Ball State won last year's meeting, 34-3, in a game that sailed UNDER, and this total is too high. Take Ball State/Kent State UNDER the total.
