Point Spread Pick for Youngstown State vs. Georgia Southern
- Youngstown State Penguins -5.5 (4 Units)
The Penguins have the edge here because they’re playing better offensively, scoring more than 81 points per game in their last three games while making over 48 percent of their shots. They’ve also done a better job at the charity stripe, making over 73 percent of their free throws during that span, while the Eagles made less than 70 percent of theirs. They rebound the ball well and grab more than eight offensive rebounds per game, which will give them more scoring chances. They also do a good job of protecting the ball and won’t give up many easy-scoring opportunities. The Eagles aren’t very good defensively, and they’re giving up more than 88 points per game, so expect them to have a hard time slowing down the Penguins. Go with Youngstown State to cover the spread.
