Bulls outmatch Flashes in MAC opener

Kent State football players ran out of the tunnel with high emotions as they jumped up and down, trying to get the crowd excited for their second home game on Saturday, as they began conference play when the Buffalo Bulls (3-2, 1-0 Mid-American Conference) traveled to Dix Stadium to take on Kent State.

The Flashes (1-4, 0-1 MAC) got out to a hot start defensively, as they forced a punt after three plays, but then the Bulls forced Kent State to punt three plays later.

Freshman Dustin Crum started the game at quarterback. He completed his first pass of the day to Justin Rankin out of the backfield before the Bulls sacked him on third down.
