Georgia State at Auburn odds, picks and prediction

Analyzing Saturday’s Georgia State at Auburn odds and lines, with college football expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Georgia State Panthers (1-2) and Auburn Tigers (2-1) meet Saturday at Jordan-Hare Stadium in Auburn, Ala. Kickoff is scheduled for 4 p.m. ET. Below, we look at the Georgia State at Auburn odds and lines, and make our expert college football picks, predictions and bets.

The Panthers were able to ease by Charlotte last weekend by a 20-9 count, winning and covering for the first time in three tries. It was also the first Under result after allowing 51.0 PPG in the first two games.

The Tigers, No. 23 in the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports, had their way with Akron and FCS Alabama State in the first two games, rolling up 61.0 PPG. However, the Tigers were humbled a bit at Penn State Saturday falling 28-20.

Georgia State at Auburn odds, lines, picks and predictions

Prediction

Auburn 48, Georgia State 17

Money line

Auburn (-3000) is going to push past Georgia State (+1100) before getting knee-deep in the SEC schedule. While this game should be one-sided, there is no sense risking 30 times your potential return. There is just no value here.

AVOID.

Against the spread

AUBURN -26.5 (-117) is the play in this one as the Tigers get a final tune-up before things get much more difficult in conference play.

I still don’t trust QB Bo Nix to roll up big numbers, especially against top-notch teams. However, in this glorified scrimmage against a middle-tier Sun Belt squad, he should show out, and RB Tank Bigsby will roll up huge offensive numbers.

Over/Under

OVER 57.5 (-108) is the play here as the Auburn offense can be trusted against non-Power 5 teams. They made it look easy in routs of Akron and Alabama State. Georgia State allowed 43 points to Army in the opener and 59 points to North Carolina Sept. 11. Expect the Tigers to add to GSU’s defensive woes.
