When two of the worst teams in college football meet on Tuesday, the result could be an entertaining college football game.

Continue reading to get our college football best bets for Akron vs Kent State in an all-Ohio clash.

Can Akron Avoid Being the One?

The Akron Zips have had a rough season in 2024, going 2-8 overall and 1-5 in the MAC. They have lost two straight games by double-digits against Buffalo and Northern Illinois. This week, they will hope to end that losing streak to avoid being the first team this season to lose to Kent State. For that to happen, the Zips will need to play their best game of the year on the road. They have not only lost every road game they have played this season, but have lost them all by double-digits, something they will look to change against Akron on Tuesday.

Kent State Looks For First Win At Home

Kent is still winless going into this week, losing 10 straight games to open their season. Only two of their games this season have been decided by single-digits, including a loss to an FCS opponent in St. Francis. But this might be the best chance of the season for Kent State to get a win, as they are facing an Akron team that has been so bad on the road. Whether or not the Golden Flashes can take advantage of that opportunity is another conversation entirely.

Akron vs Kent State Best Bet

You will have to hold your nose while backing either side in this Akron vs Kent State matchup in the MAC. But we are going to do just that and take the 10 points with Kent State as a home underdog. Akron's struggles on the road this year don't have us convinced that they can win this game at all, let alone by double-digits so that they can cover the spread. Look for these two struggling teams to play a close game, regardless of the outcome in the end.
