Kennesaw State vs FIU Prediction 

Kennesaw State rolls into this matchup on a four game winning streak, but all four of those wins did come at home. The Owls have scored 24+ points in four straight games and their defense has been very solid. FIU has been inconsistent this season, but they did get a great win against WKU last time out. Kennesaw State has been very impressive over the last month and while I don’t love them going on the road, I will still take the Owls to cover here, as I don’t trust the FIU offense.
