MAC East Conference - Kent State Golden Flashes Preview
The Kent State Golden Flashes had a difficult 2005, as they were a green team heading into the season and then suffered a number of injuries on both defense and offense. They limped to a 1-10 record, and were so decimated that even Buffalo was able to get its first-ever MAC road win. This season should be dramatically different as the Golden Flashes are one of the most experienced teams in the MAC, thanks in large part to many of their injured players returning. Offensively, things are much improved and they should easily beat the 16 PPG average from last season.

Defensively, they surrendered 30 PPG a year ago, but with nine returnees things should be a lot better. The Golden Flashes were in major rebuilding mode last season and that should pay dividends this time around. Look for a much-improved D to take charge until the offense kicks in. They host Akron and Ohio and the rest of their divisional schedule looks winnable with road games against weaker opponents. Expect a huge rebound for the Golden Flashes this season.
