The Golden Flashes do not have much history to begin with, but they have especially fallen on hard times following the departure of former head coach Sean Lewis. Kent State might be the worst team in FBS this fall, and I would even pick any FCS programs who have sniffed the playoffs in recent years.
HOME GAME THEME: Military Appreciation Day
11. Purdue (Nov. 16, Away)
The Boilermakers are in a similar position as Kent State as they try to rebuild a program that has consistently been close of the conference standings. It feels as though they could be one of the programs left behind in a new age of college football, and the elimination of the divisions in the Big Ten just about removes any chance to compete for a conference crown any time soon.
