Kent State (0-2) will look to bring home their first win of the year when they welcome FCS opponent Monmouth University (2-0) to Dix Stadium on Saturday after opening its season with losses to Penn State and to FCS opponent North Carolina A&T.
The Hawks opened their season with road wins over Lehigh University and Delaware State University. This will be Monmouth's second game ever against an FBS school— they lost 34-10 to Central Michigan University last year.
“They have confidence (because) they’re 2-0 and they have it rolling,” head coach Paul Haynes said at Monday's press conference.
