Kent State vs Oklahoma Prediction & Pick

Oklahoma handled UTEP, 45-13 at home last week as 31-point favorites in the head coaching debut of Brent Venables. Kent State's power rating is equal to UTEP, but the Golden Flashes will have to improve on defense after allowing 345 passing yards and 4 TDs in a 45-20 loss at Washington last week.

Kent State's 1,200 yard rusher RB Marquez Cooper will be more involved this week after just 36 rushing yards vs Washington. Still, Oklahoma allowed just 28 rushing yards last week on 31 attempts. Clearly a one-sided talent discrepancy, but lighter lean to the huge underdog.

Final Score Prediction: Oklahoma: 45 | Kent State 16

Kent State vs Oklahoma Best Bet

All NCAAF betting lines, odds and prop bets are available on FanDuel Sportsbook.

Kent State is 0-6 ATS in its last six games as a road underdog. But Oklahoma has Nebraska up next and OU coach Venables mentioned the desire to get more players on the field this week. Still, with the steam on Oklahoma and bettors seeing such an easy win, the contrary side gets the call to cover the huge number.

Bet: Kent State +34.5 (-114)
