Kent State at Buffalo

A battle of MAC unbeatens, which means defense will take center stage. Kent State is #28 in the nation defensively in yards per game allowed, fourth against the pass surrendering 166.7 yards in the air per contest. This game will be outdoors at UB Stadium and it will be cold (40 degrees) and windy. Buffalo is also 3-0 and playing tough defense, #31 in yards per game allowed, #16 in points surrendered (19 pg). They have an excellent ground attack on offense and will attack the one weak area of the Kent State defense. Running the pigskin well chews up yards and keeps the clock moving. Buffalo ran for 245 yards against Kent in last year's meeting (57 total points tallied) and this total is too high. Play Kent State/Buffalo UNDER the total.
