....to see Kent catching 6-7 points from Pittsburgh?
I really thought this game would be closer to 3-4 points. I saw Kent play 3 times over the weekend and left more impressed by them than I was originally. Solid guard play, and decent interior play with Warzynski (or Chia Pet, as the Buffalo fans affectionately taunted... :142smilie ) and Gerwig. This club started out 6-5, and then went on to win 19 of their last 22.
The game is in Auburn Hill, and the Kent faithful generally travel well. The Palace is only a couple hours from campus, and I would anticipate a lot of yellow in the stands. True--Pitt is only a few hours further away, but add to the fact that an impartial crowd generally roots on the underdog, and I think you will see a pro-Kent support in the stands.
Pitt GENERALLY doesn't score a ton of points and will beat you with physically and with defense. Kent is certainly athletic enough to keep this one real close, if not win this sucker outright. Without doing the homework, I am not confident to play this game on the money line yet, but I will gladly take the touchdown and make Kent one of my bigger plays in the first round.
