This is a Sun Belt mismatch as 3-1 (and first place) Georgia Southern takes on a UL-Monroe squad with a losing record. The UL-Monroe schedule-maker has done the team no favors, having played a pair of SEC teams already, getting blown out by Georgia (51-14) and Alabama (34-0) last week, and it has to have taken a physical toll on the players. They got 92 total yards last week! UL Monroe is home but the Warhawks are 1-3-1 ATS in their last five home games. Georgia Southern has a powerhouse ground attack, winning three in a row scoring 43, 48 and 44 points. The Eagles won their third straight in a 44-20 win on the road at Idaho. The Eagles are 7-1 ATS following a win of more than 20 points, plus 6-1 ATS after scoring more than 40 points in their previous game. Georgia Southern is also 9-3 ATS against a team with a losing record, 9-4 ATS on the road, all part of a 15-5 spread run overall. Their great ground attack will chew up yards and the clock with Georgia Southern 4-0 UNDER the total in conference games. Monroe will struggle to score again and is on a 7-3 run UNDER the total at home, plus 9-4 UNDER after a defeat. Take Georgia Southern and the UNDER.
