Youngstown State was an aggressive offensive team, and went on to average 76.9 points per game last season. The problem wasn't the offense, as the Penguins finished the season with just a 15-17 overall mark, and a disappointing 6-10 mark in league play. They have a lot of problems ahead as the scoring is mostly gone from last season's team. They lose their top three scorers from that team, which includes the league's leading scorer in Kendrick Perry (21.3 ppg). Kent State finished at .500 last year, and they were a guard-laden team that needed some size to get over the top. The Golden Flashes have added a 6-10 and a 7-4 player to the rotation, and with some good shooting guards they should find even more success this season. Youngstown State is going to have to find some scoring, and the defense is awful, so a long season lies ahead. Play Kent State on the moneyline.
