KENT- The Mid-American Conference has released Kent State's upcoming football opponents for the first cycle of the conference's new pod system.
The Conference announced a new scheduling model that does away with divisions and placed the schools into four, three-team pods. The Flashes will play Akron and Buffalo every season with a three-year rotation that guarantees the Flashes will face the other 10 teams at least once.
In the 2024 season, Kent State will host Akron, Ball State, Eastern Michigan, and Ohio in conference play with Saint Francis University (PA) coming to Dix Stadium in the non-conference season. The Flashes will visit Bowling Green, Buffalo, Miami, and Western Michigan in MAC play while visiting Penn State, Pitt and Tennessee in the non-conference.
Dates for the 2024 conference games will be announced in February. To see the conference opponents for the 2025 and 2026 season, please see the Mid-American Conference's release.
The Flashes will open at Pitt on August 31st and kick-off the home schedule a week later on September 7th against Saint Francis. Season tickets for the 2024 slate will also be available in February.
