Kent State With One Last Chance to Get a Win

So far this season, the Kent State Golden Flashes have played 11 games. They have lost all 11 of those games, including a game against an FCS opponent early in the season. This game is the last chance for Kent State to get into the win column. On one hand, we expect them to play hard to try and avoid the embarrassment of an 0-12 season. But on the other, they have played hard all season and have no wins to show for it. It will be interesting to see how Kent State looks early in this game as they look to pull off an upset to end their year.

Buffalo Looks For Fourth Straight Win

Buffalo's season will not be over after this matchup in the MAC. They will be playing in a bowl game after winning 7 of their first 11 games, including 5 of their 7 conference matchups. Here, the Bulls will look for a win that will improve their bowl game positioning against arguably the worst team in FBS football this season. Buffalo has won three straight games entering this one, averaging 43 points per game during that span and they are in a great position to put up a ton of points again in this game against a bad Kent State defense.

Kent State vs Buffalo Betting Pick

Our best bet for Kent State vs Buffalo on Tuesday is for the Buffalo Bulls to cover the spread as 21-point favorites. That is a huge point spread to lay in a mid-week matchup in a small conference, but the Golden Flashes have been so bad that we have no choice but to take the Bulls here. Look for Kent State to finish out a winless season with a blowout loss on the road.
