WIN

We rode Kent State last week to an easy win. But, in that game they were getting points vs. a weaker team. This week things are different. The last time these two teams saw each other it was in the MAC Title game. Northern Illinois was a strong favorite, but the Golden Flashes had them on the ropes before bowing in overtime in a very exciting contest. Fast forward and Kent State is a shell of what they brought to the field in that last contest. They are 2-3 this season with wins over Liberty and 0-5 Western Michigan. They have had three lopsided losses otherwise, and this is likely to be the fourth. Northern Illinois still has Jordan Lynch at QB who has thrown for 37 TDs in his career to just 8 INTs while rushing for 28 more, generating close to 3,000 yards on the ground. That was good enough to go into the Big-10 and knock off both Purdue and Iowa. The Huskies can get it done on the road, especially against a weaker opponent as they are 6-0-1 ATS in their last seven on the road vs. a team with a losing home record. Kent has fallen while the Huskies are riding high. Play on Northern Illinois.
