UL Monroe at Arkansas State

Louisiana-Monroe is off to a 3-1 start anchored by the defense allowing 23 points per game. The offense, though, is #119 in the nation in scoring with 19.3 points per game. The UNDER is 7-1 when following a spread loss and a perfect 6-0 UNDER the total after a bye week. The defense held LSU to 10 first half points. They face an Arkansas State team that is no offensive dynamo at #95 in the nation in points scored, #75 in rushing and #78 in passing. Arkansas State is on a 4-1 run UNDER the total and 26-10-2 UNDER the total against a team with a winning record. Arkansas State is also 12-5 UNDER the total in October and 4-1 UNDER against a team with a winning record. When these teams met last year, Monroe had 14 points and was 2-of-14 on third down and this shapes up as a defensive duel. This one stays UNDER the total.
