Both will want to run the ball which will run down the clock. Kent State will struggle to get any points on the board as they struggle with offense and are the worst team in the FBS. There is some bad weather forecasted for this game and that will keep the ball on the ground and make it more messy. This should be a lower scoring game. The total has gone Under in 4 of Akron's last 5 games against an opponent in the East Division. The total has gone Under in 10 of Kent State's last 14 games against Akron.

Best bet: take the Under the Total.
