Miami (OH) Rolling Into Matchup Against Kent State, Unfavored Kansas State Lacking Offensive Production

Miami (OH) has been on a roll, winning three consecutive games following an opening season loss to the Miami Hurricanes. Their offense has been extraordinary, averaging 34.3 points and 460.3 yards per game, with a ground game of 195.5 yards per game. This should help them gain advantage over Kent State's weak run defense that allows 201.8 yards per game. Moreover, Kent State's defense allows an average of 36.8 points per game, and they have not heavily favored in their last ten compared to the Redhawks' spread. Furthermore, Kansas State's offensive production rate of 15.0 points per game is amongst the lowest in the nation.
