Eastern Michigan Looking to Extend Winning Streak

Before Saturday's MACtion kicks off, the Eastern Michigan Eagles have a 3-1 record in non-conference play. Their lone loss came against the Washington Huskies of the Big Ten, with the Eagles beating UMass, St. Francis, and Jacksonville State. Eastern Michigan has won two games in a row coming into this MAC matchup, scoring 36.5 points per game in their last two contests. Against arguably the worst team in all of FBS football, the Eastern Michigan offense will have to like its chances once again in this game as they hope to start their MAC campaign with a relatively straightfoward victory in Kent, OH.

Kent State Hoping Conference Play Provides Relief

This season has been a disaster so far for the Kent State Golden Flashes. Kent State has dropped all four of its non-conference games, including a loss to FCS opponent St. Francis. Over the last two weeks, the Golden Flashes were beaten 56-0 by Penn State and 71-0 by Tennessee. And while the Golden Flashes are not going to play a team nearly as tough as those two schools again this season, the fact that Kent State is so overmatched on both sides of the ball is certainly alarming going into this MAC opener for them.

Eastern Michigan vs Kent State Best Bet

On one hand, Kent State is not going to play another game as tough as their last two games for the remainder of their 2024 season. But on the other, the Golden Flashes are still dreadful in just about all phases of the game going into this Eastern Michigan vs Kent State contest. Look for the Eastern Michigan Eagles to cover the spread in what should be the third win in a row for the Eagles.
