In this article we will formulate a Indiana vs Kennesaw State prediction for this College Football game on Saturday, September 6th at Memorial Stadium in Bloomington, Indiana. Let’s take a look at the prediction for this week 2 matchup.Â
Kennesaw State Owls Betting Preview
The Kennesaw State Owls are 0-1 this year after they lost to Wake Forest by a score of 10-9 in their first game. Kennesaw State trailed 7-6 after the first quarter and that was the same score at halftime, before the Owls took a 9-7 lead in the third. Kennesaw State allowed a field goal later in the third and couldn’t find any points in the fourth for the tough loss. The Owls were out gained by a total of 348-307, went 9-19 on third down conversions, and tied the turnover battle at zero. Dexter Williams II went 12-33 for 149 yards, while also rushing for 44 yards on 14 carries. Coleman Bennett rushed 17 times for 66 yards and one score, while Gabriel Benyard caught five passes for 103 yards in the loss. The Kennesaw State defense was led by Baron Hopson, who had 11 tackles, while the team recorded four sacks and seven tackles for loss.Â
Kennesaw State played very well defensively in their opening game, but they lost a heartbreaker against Wake Forest. The Owls missed an early extra point, which ended up being the difference in the game. Offensively, Kennesaw State has to find more points and their passing game has to be better than completing just 12 out of 33 passes.Â
Indiana Hoosiers Betting Preview
The Indiana Hoosiers are 1-0 this season after they defeated Old Dominion by a score of 27-14 last week. Indiana trailed 7-0 in the first quarter, but they tied it up after one and led 17-7 at the half. The Hoosiers extended the lead to 27-7 in the third quarter, but they were outscored 7-0 in the fourth. Indiana out gained Old Dominion by a total of 502-314, went 10-17 on third down conversions, and won the turnover battle by a total of 3-1. Fernando Mendoza went 18-31 for 193 yards in the win, while Roman Hemby carried the ball 23 times for 111 yards and Omar Cooper Jr caught two passes for 52 yards. The Indiana defense was led by Louis Moore, who had seven total tackles, while the team had one sack and three tackles for loss.Â
Indiana played pretty well defensively in their opening game, but the offense has to be a concern. The Hoosiers racked up 500 total yards, but only managed 27 points and were shutout in the fourth. The rushing attack was decent, but the passing game was held under 200 yards. One negative on the defensive side was allowing the ODU quarterback to rush for nearly 180 yards.Â

Indiana vs Kennesaw State PredictionÂ
Indiana failed to cover in their first game against Old Dominion, but they will come into this matchup favored by around five touchdowns. The Hoosiers should be better on offense in this game, but we saw Kennesaw State give Wake Forest plenty of issues last week. The Owls struggled to generate points in their first game and it won’t be any easier here against a solid Indiana defense. I am not sold on either offense entering this week, so I will take a look at the under in this game.Â
