Kennedy remains atop updated depth chart
Football
If Akron intends to abide by its updated depth chart, expect a Homecoming loss.
Dennis Kennedy, who has notoriously broken down as the season progresses, is still the starting running back. Joe Tuzze and Andrew Johnson follow him.
The other major change is that Andre Jones and Alphonso Owen share a wide receiver job. That boggles my mind. Jones has been one of the league's best receivers. Owen is good for one catch a game, maybe.
One positive: Jalil Carter has moved into a tie for the free safety position with Tyler Campbell. Campbell might be a serviceable MAC starter, but Carter has more upside.

Other notes...
Bowling Green is a two-point favorite.
I read another Doug Martin quote in today's Buchtelite. Apparently, he said this in the postgame press conference: "Obviously, we had a better offensive and defensive scheme than they did." Keep patting yourself on the back, Doug.
Tom Gaffney wrote about Deryn Bowser and his game-saving catch.
Elton Alexander talks a little about the Bowling Green game in his blog.
