Kent State vs Miami (OH) Prediction
You can make a case for Kent State or Miami Ohio as these are two of the better teams in the MAC. I strongly considered Kent State and the points, as Miami Ohio is coming off two bad losses in the favorite role. It’s also a revenge spot for Kent State after losing to Miami Ohio a month ago as a five-point favorite. With all of that said we’re laying a bucket with Miami Ohio at home where it’s 12-1 SU on the season. We also can’t ignore the first meeting, where Miami Ohio held Kent State to 38 percent shooting from the field. Give me more points, and I’ll pull the trigger with the Golden Flashes. Instead, I’ll lay the bucket with the RedHawks at home.
