No. 2 Ohio -3.5 Over Kent State

Spread: Ohio by 3.5

Last Week: Ohio lost 27-20 to Eastern Michigan, Kent State lost 18-14 to Miami (Ohio)

Why Ohio Covers: Both teams are coming off losses, but Kent State is just 2-5 this season. Their only wins have come against Monmouth and Buffalo. Ohio's wins include beating Kansas and Bowling Green. The Bobcats also hung with Tennessee earlier this season. The OddsShark computer has picked up on the mismatch in this contest. It projects a 20.2-9.6 Ohio victory. Go with Ohio in this one. (Getty)
