The UM Kansas City Roos may have beaten Toledo yesterday, but outside of that surprising result, they haven’t done much that moves the needle. It takes more than that to get me behind the Roos. The Indiana State Sycamores have quietly been one of the more impressive teams in the country through 4 games, and their offensive firepower is legit. I’m not sure UM Kansas City will be up to the task to defend on the end of a back to back. Give me the Sycamores and whatever the line is.
