There wasn't a whole lot expected from Arkansas State, opening on the road at Oklahoma. The problem is what we saw was less. The Red Wolves were embarrassed 73-0. They couldn't move the ball or stop Oklahoma even with all the starters out. They won the second-half 28-0. Memphis opened against Bethune-Cookman and the result was as expected a 56-14 win. Lost in that was they held their opponent to fewer than 100 total yards. Arkansas is breaking in a new QB, and return just five starters on offense, and it showed against Oklahoma. Memphis proved it could shutdown a weak offense, and I expect they hold Arkansas State's woeful offense in check, and name their score in this one. Memphis gets the call.

Pro Picks
Memphis at Arkansas State
This is a high total as these teams were offensive powerhouses last season, but this is a new year, and Memphis breaks in a new starter in freshman quarterback Seth Henigan. Memphis is 7-1-2 UNDER the total as chalk, including 13-6 UNDER as a road favorite. Arkansas State has a lot of fresh faces, as well, starting with new head coach Butch Jones bringing in changes to the offense. The receiving corps lost leading WR Jonathan Adams and second-leading target Brandon Bowling while leading rusher Jamal Jones is also gone. Jones used two quarterbacks in the opener, Layne Hatcher and newcomer James Blackman. Arkansas State is 50-31 UNDER the total as an underdog, including 12-2 UNDER as a home dog. These teams played in Week 1 a year ago and combined for four turnovers, and this looks even more like a game where the defenses will be ahead of the new-look offenses. Make the play on the UNDER for a Max Play.
