Troy at South Alabama
7:30 PM Eastern
Troy has won four in a row and has allowed an average of just 14.5 points in that span, including a 17-14 victory over Texas State on Saturday while holding the Bobcats to 293 total yards and only 86 on the ground. The offense was not overwhelming and just good enough as Gunnar Watson completed only 12 passes for 240 yards for the Trojans and the game went UNDER by 16 points and three of their last four games have stayed UNDER. South Alabama has had trouble putting up points in recent meetings as Troy has beaten them four straight while giving up an average of 13.5 points. The UNDER is 21-8 in Troy's past 29 games after they scored fewer than 20 points their previous game and the Trojans are 11-5 UNDER their past 16 road games. The Jaguars are 9-4 UNDER their past 13 home games and 9-4 UNDER their past 13 October games. Take the UNDER, Max Play.
