## Resource

Kent State’s head coach Kenniciencies Carney is gearing up for a high-stakes, high-payoff season opener against powerhouse South Carolina — a game that pays $1.3 million and marks just the second meeting between the schools since 1995. Carney admires the Gamecocks’ physical dominance, elite QB, and SEC-built linemen, while also praising their coaching staff — especially offensive coordinator Kendal Briles and defensive coordinator Clayton White. With nine starters returning, including star returner DaRealyst Clark and QB Dru Deshields, Kent State is poised for a breakout year after a five-win campaign. Despite being heavy underdogs at Williams-Brice Stadium, Carney embraces the challenge, ready to test his team against one of college football’s most feared programs.
