A win and the Golden Flashes will at the very least clinch a share of the MAC East Division title along with a top-4 seed in next week's MAC Tournament. An overall MAC Regular Season Championship and the No. 1 seed are also still in play.

The first 1,000 students will get a FREE "Beat Akron" T-shirt.

As of Thursday morning, general admission seats and some tickets in the lower level were still available.

To get you ready for tomorrow, head coach Rob Senderoff previews Senior Night and the battle with Akron and also looks back at Tuesday night's big win at Bowling Green. Some of the inspiration for that victory was found in looking back at Kent State alum Julian Edelman and the New England Patriots comeback in the Super Bowl.
