FLASH Back Week 3: September 19, 1981 vs TSDTR

KENT, OHIO- It's week three of the Kent State Football Flashback as we take a look at standout performances each week across Kent State football history.

This week, we take a look at the Wagon Wheel rivalry and the Golden Flashes' game against the school down the road on September 19, 1981.

The 1981 season marked the beginning of the Ed Chlebek era. Chlebek took over for Ron Blackledge, who left after the 1980 season to begin a 20-year career coaching offensive lines in the National Football League.

Chlebek was still looking for his first Kent State win.
