Georgia State came aboard the FBS in 2013, and their first two seasons were not much fun as they went a combined 1-21. They made a lot of progress last year to earn a Bowl bid. The Panthers are just 2-5 on the season, but the schedule has been exceedingly difficult as the five losses have come at the hands of teams that have a combined record of 24-12 - none under .500. Despite the tough schedule, the defense has been above average. South Alabama has played their top two opponents on their schedule to a pair of wins vs. Mississippi and San Diego State. The problem is that they also beat the worst team on their schedule in Nichols State by one point as a -17-point favorite. Their other two closely lined games of +2 and +4 both resulted in losses. This is one of those teams that seems to play to the level of the competition, and Georgia State is a dangerous 2-5 vs. a team that plays that way. Make the play on Georgia State.

South Alabama at Georgia State
The transition into playing at the FBS level for Georgia State is coming with a huge learning curve. While progress has been made, there are still talent gaps that has rendered this team at 3-6 on the season. On the strength of two straight wins, South Alabama has moved themselves to 5-4 on the season and a win away from Bowl eligibility, so they have to be feeling pretty good about themselves right now. The Jags offense has made strides as the season has progressed, and they have generated over 400 yards in each of their last three games. Georgia State has allowed over 400 yards in four of their last six, and don't appear to be a candidate to slow down the steadily improving Jags attack. The Jags allowed under 100 rushing yards in their last game, and have followed by going 7-2 ATS in their last nine after doing so. The Panthers have established no home field advantage at 1-9-1 ATS in their last 11 at home. Play on South Alabama.
