Result: Push

Today's winner is Northern Illinois over Kent State.

The Huskies are in their 2nd straight MAC Title game while the Golden Flashes are making their first post-season appearance in just about 40 years. NIU smoked K State, 40-10 in LYs regular season meeting. The big edge in this one (besides experience) is at QB. Jordan Lynch has 2750 YP, 23 TDs, and only 4 INTs in the air. On the ground, you can add 1611 YR and 16 more scores. Spencer Keith's job is to hand the ball off to RB, Dri Archer. Keith has 11 TDs and 7 INTs. The Huskies will contain Archer and force Keith to make mistakes. NIU has won and covered 5 straight over K State. Take Northern Illinois. Thank you.
