UTEP vs Kennesaw State Prediction 

Kennesaw State rolls into this matchup on a five game winning streak and they have scored 35 and 45 points in their last two games. The Owls are at the top of the conference standings and will be at home for this contest. UTEP snapped their losing streak with a win over Sam Houston last time out, but they have allowed at least 27 points in three of their last five games. I think Kennesaw State is the better team on both sides of the ball and I just don’t trust UTEP to keep pace offensively. Take Kennesaw State to cover at home.
