Bowling Green vs Kent State Prediction

I don’t want to back Kent State as much as the next guy, as we’re talking about possibly the worst offense in college football. Kent State is also 113th in scoring defense. The Golden Flashes are horrible. However, let’s not act like Bowling Green is a team you want to back in the favorite role. Bowling Green is 136th in total offense and 131st in scoring offense. Bowling Green is 133rd in rush defense and 102nd in scoring defense. Bowling Green has just one home win this season, and the last time we saw the Falcons as a favorite, they lost to Ball State outright.

I’ve said it many times before: just because one team stinks doesn’t make the opponent better. Just because Kent State isn’t good does not mean I’m laying 5.5 points with Bowling Green. No thanks. If forced to pick, it’s Kent State and the points.
