Jacksonville State prefers to run the football behind RB Cam Cook (614 yards), as their quarterbacks have more interceptions (4) than touchdowns (3). They turned it over four times in the last game, a loss at Southern Miss. Winless Sam Houston State is ranked 129th in total yards on offense and 122nd in scoring (15 points per game). The ground attack averages just 3.3 yards per carry. Jacksonville State won last year's meeting, 21-11, and this appears to be another low-scoring affair. Take Jacksonville State/Sam Houston State UNDER the total.
