What does everyone think of Kent's chances this week. I know one thing OU is playing some good ball right now and for Kent to have a chance they are going to have to play mistake free and hope OU will make a couple themselves. That means limit the turn overs and keep penalties to a minimum which we all know has been the weak point this year. I do not care about Kent winning 3 out of the last 4 there, that is the past and has nothing to do with tomorrows game. I feel they need to keep it low scoring and play the field position game. We saw what happens when Kent gets in a shootout i.e BG. The less decisions Spencer has to make the better. OU is a very well coached team and I assure you they will be ready for Kent. So I want to see a lot of running, continue to play aggressive on D, limit mistakes and keep it low scoring and I can see Kent winning 13-10.

They have to throw it deep and across the middle (slants), as OU plays a ton of man coverage. Their linebacking core, Keller/Renfro, are very experienced and disciplined, so the OL is going to have to get to the 2nd level, if KSU wants to run the ball effectively.
OU's RB's are banged up, so KSU needs to hit them in the mouth early and often, so that they can shut the run down. KSU needs to get pressure on Theo Scott, OU's Senior QB, who is allusive and has not been sacked in 5 games, so Hogan, Simmons, Kitchen, Frist, and Hull need to have a huge game, getting pressure on the QB, hitting the QB a ton, and getting sacks, as pressure is good, but they need to finish the plays. Hogan and Simmons really need to step up down the stretch for the Flashes, as the CB's have been having trouble and are giving to big of a cushion, so the front 4 needs to be in the backfield all day this Saturday and the following weeeks.

IMHO, Frank is one of the 2 best coaches in the MAC. And, I do not know who is number 1. Hope we have better talent.

Don't know why, but I've got a good feeling about this game.

Vegas has Kent as 10 point dogs

Its probably because KSU has won 3 of the last 4 in Athens and the away team has won 8 out of the last 10 games in this series.

They are picked to lose not win. It is because OU is a better team

I was kidding eday. All of the things I posted make sense that Kent wins, but they are getting 10 points.
