PICK: Over
– Bet on this, BetMGM latest line
Georgia Southern games haven’t been crazy scoring-fests.
The Eagles hold on to the ball for long periods of time, run a lot, and they shorten the game. The 35-30 win over a bad ULM team was the only time one of its games went over 52 combined points.
And then there’s Troy.
The defense hasn’t been bad, and the offense has managed 31 points or more in every game but the 48-7 loss to BYU – that game went past the 52-point mark. In fact, every game but last week’s 38-10 win over Arkansas State went over 52.
Troy is going to score close to 28. To keep up, either Georgia Southern will score 30ish and win, or around 27isn and lose.
