Kent State Adds The Rebels to Their 2018 Football Schedule

According to this article by FBschedules.com, the Kent State Golden Flashes will head to Oxford to take on the Ole Miss Rebels out of the mighty SEC. Also gleaned from the same article, the Golden Flashes will receive a cool 1.5 million for the game.

Kent State could gain even more with a win. Very few things in this world are more satisfying than going into SEC land and coming away with a major upset. Unlike when a MAC school knocks off a Big Ten opponent, the national media narrative is more about how good the win is for the little guy and less about how weak their power 5 opponent is.
