The Kent State Golden Flashes (1-0) travel to Lubbock on Saturday to take on the No. 23 Texas Tech Red Raiders (1-0) at Jones AT&T Stadium.

Texas Tech cruised through its opener, dismantling Arkansas–Pine Bluff 67-7 behind a sharp outing from quarterback Behren Morton, who tossed four touchdown passes and racked up 201 yards before exiting in the second quarter after a late low hit.

Kent State, meanwhile, survived a far tenser debut. The Golden Flashes found themselves down three in the closing minutes against Merrimack before Da’Realyst Clark electrified the crowd with a 100-yard kickoff return, sealing a dramatic 21-17 victory.
