The Falcons earned a berth to the 2014 MAC Championship Game by clinching the MAC Eastern Division regular season crown with a 30–20 victory over the Kent State Golden Flashes. Starting running back Travis Greene was held out of the contest due to an injury he sustained a week prior. Running back Andre Givens answered the call, rushing for a career-high 157 yards on 38 carries and two touchdowns. Wide receiver Ryan Burbrink caught eight passes for 111 yards.
