Georgia Southern vs App State Pick
Georgia Southern boasts the worst run defense in the Sun Belt. The Eagles are also lousy against the pass, and they’re about to face a pass-happy App State attack that runs at a NASCAR tempo.
App State’s defense also can’t stop the run, and the Mountaineers have lost it on the back end, ranking 105th nationally in PFF’s Coverage grades and 121st in Pass Explosiveness allowed.
Georgia Southern games are 6-2 to the Over this season.
However, one of those losses came last week against Arkansas State, which finished with 58 points after the total closed at 59. That game featured an interception in the end zone, three field goals inside the opponent’s 10-yard line, and over 800 yards of total offense. That game should’ve easily cleared the closing total.
This total is off by three or four points. Georgia Southern games are clearing the total by an average of 6.8 points per game, which is the eighth-highest mark among Group of 5 squads.
Pick: Over 62.5
