Betting Trends for vs
The Georgia Southern Eagles were able to test one of the best teams in the nation at the beginning of the season (Minnesota), and reasonably so as they have a dangerous rushing attack (256.3 YPG). The Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks may have a great offense, but they are terrible on the defensive side of the ball as they are allowing an average of 37.8 PPG which won’t bode well against a team that will control the clock. Georgia Southern will keep the ball on the ground for 95% of their snaps, and if they take the lead early, they will milk the clock for an easy win. Georgia Southern has been respectable on the defensive side of the ball, and they should be able to contribute a few stops on their home field to win this game. Final Score Prediction, Georgia Southern Eagles win and cover ATS 34-24.
