Middle Tennessee vs Kennesaw State Prediction


In this Middle Tennessee vs Kennesaw State Prediction, Kennesaw State is coming as -3.5 home favorites. Kennesaw State has been the better team this season and has been almost perfect at home with just one loss in 11 home games. They are 6-3 in their last 9 games and are facing a struggling Middle Tennessee squad that has five consecutive losses and a terrible 1-9 against the spread record. The hosts also have a superior offense, scoring 10.7 points per game more than Middle Tennessee, so I expect them to take care of business at home in a comfortable fashion. Take Kennesaw State and lay the points.
