This is a low total for a college football game as these MAC teams have good defenses. However, they have great ground attacks on offense, too. Both teams feature top rushing attacks, with Kent State second in the MAC with 175.4 yards per game and Toledo third at 175.3. Toledo quarterback Phillip Ely is a transfer from Alabama, recruited by Nick Saban and the Tide. Toledo is 10-4 OVER the total after allowing fewer than 20 points in their previous game, as well as 23-9-1 OVER at home against a team with a losing road record. RBs Kareem Hunt and Terry Swanson combined for 216 rushing yards in last season's 30-20 win at Kent State. Swanson started in Hunt's place last week and rushed for 139 yards. Kent State QB Colin Reardon (six TDs, three picks) threw three interceptions in the opener at a Big 10 team and has six TDs, and no picks since. Kent State is 5-1 OVER the total after allowing more than 280 yards passing in its previous contest. Play this one to go OVER the total.
