Georgia State 1st Quarter Spread -6.5 (-134)

The Panthers of Georgia State head into this week looking to redeem themselves after a 51-0 whipping at home against Coastal Carolina on Halloween night. They’re averaging 8.4 points per game in the first quarter this season, and that average was even more impressive before getting blanked against the Chanticleers last weekend.

On the flip side, Louisiana-Monroe has been outscored 45-0 in the first quarter in the previous three outings, and 87-10 in the first quarter in seven games overall this season.

Arkansas State-Louisiana 1st Half Total Over 34 (-125)

I am a huge fan of Sun Belt (Fun Belt!) action, and you can bank on plenty of scoring in the conference’s games. The Ragin’ Cajuns visited Texas State last week and combined for 28 total points in the first quarter, and 55 points in the first half, leading 34-21 before eventually winning 44-34.

Ark State won’t offer much resistance, as it is allowing 40.3 PPG this season, 103rd in the nation. The Red Wolves have allowed 79 points in the first half across the past three games, while the Ragin’ Cajuns have yielded 47 points in the first half over the previous three. Look for another high-scoring affair here.

Florida-Georgia 1st Half Total Over 26.5 (-110)

Georgia’s defense has been on point this season, allowing just 300.6 total yards per game to rank 15th in the nation, while yielding just 16.2 PPG to check-in 14th. The Bulldogs will try and knock Florida QB Kyle Trask off the rails, as he quietly has added himself to the Heisman radar.

UGA has had 131 total points scored in the first half of its five games this season, an average of 26.2 points per game. Trask is easily the best quarterback Georgia has seen, so it won’t take much to go Over that average and cash a winning slip.

Western Kentucky-FAU 1st Half Total Under 20 (-110)

The FAU Owls were a high-scoring team under the tutelage of head coach Lane Kiffin, but they have been extremely sluggish under first-year coach Willie Taggart so far. The Owls were blanked 10-0 in the first half of their opener against Charlotte before recovering for the win. They combined for just 13 points in a loss at Marshall on Oct. 24, and last week they totaled 20 points against UTSA.

As far as Western Kentucky, it has scored a total of six points in the first half of its past two games, and it’s hard to envision a scenario where the offense explodes against this sturdy D, especially on the road.

New Mexico Total Game Points Under 22.5 (+100)

The Lobos of UNM posted 21 points last week at San Jose State in their opener. New Mexico will have difficulty against a Hawaii defense which has been strong against the pass during the early days of its season, allowing just 200.5 yards per game through the air. QB Tevaka Tuioti was the team’s leading rusher last week with just 69 yards, and he passed for 294 yards in the loss against the Spartans.

This Lobos team isn’t up-tempo, and they cannot roll up big points. It’s hard to see UNM scoring more points than it did last week, especially against a much better D in the islands.
