After scoring nearly 80 ppg in its first five MAC games since New Year's, Ohio went cold on Tuesday vs Akron, hitting only 38% from the floor in a 67-58 loss. Tonight it's the second of the "Rubber City road trip" at nearby Kent State, which has also had a frustrating season for Reb Senderoff. But the Golden Flashes are scoring plenty of points (79 pg) paced by good three-point shooting and the emergence of G Jalen Sullinger (15.2 ppg; scored 30 in the OT win over Bowling Green on Tuesday), and have trended hard to the "over" (9-3 last 12). Play Ohio-Kent State "Over"

Very similar teams with similar records and KenPom rankings, but Ohio hasn't won on the road yet. Kent State hasn't exactly dominated at home but just won at a good Bowling Green team last time out, ending the Falcons' seven-game winning streak. KSU center Cli'Ron Hornbeak (7.9 ppg, 4.6 rpg) played for the first time in a month presumably off injury. Chris Payton Jr. and Jalen Sullinger lead the team in scoring, averaging 17 points per game in MAC play. The Flashes have won four straight in the series.
