Kent State at Akron

Kent State, despite sitting at 3-6 SU and 2-5 ATS, is favored this game. Their offense is a joke as they average 14 points for new head coach Darrell Hazell. Junior QB Spencer Keith (7 TDs, 8 INTs) has more picks than TDs, there is no running game and the offense is turnover prone. They turned to freshman QB Cedric McCloud in a 40-10 loss at Northern Illinois, but they were outgained 344-70! Even in a 33-25 win over South Alabama, the offense had just 281 total yards and the defense allowed 374. The defense is allowing 25.8 points per game. The Golden Flashes are 5-15-1 ATS in their last 21 games in November, 1-4 ATS in their last five road games and on a 4-9 ATS run overall. They head out on the road after a three-game home stand. Akron has found some offense in the second half of the season. In the past six games, the Zips have relied on the running of tailback Jawon Chisholm to average 145 yards. The Zips are also 5-2 ATS in their last seven home games. Play on Akron.
