Kent State vs Bowling Green Prediction

Bowling Green comes into this matchup on a three game losing streak and they have allowed 31 points or more in two of those three losses. The Falcons only have two wins on the season, but they have scored at least 24 points in four of their last five. Kent State has lost four of their last five games and they are coming off of a brutal loss against Sacramento State prior to their bye week. The Golden Flashes have allowed 29+ points in three of their last four games and they have scored 10 or fewer in four of five. It is tough to decide which team to trust in this situation, so I will take the points with Kent State.
