Georgia Southern vs. Coastal Carolina Pick
Spread Pick for Coastal Carolina vs. Georgia Southern
- Coastal Carolina Chanticleers +2.5 (4 units)
Oddsmakers have Coastal Carolina as a slight underdog (+2.5), but the Chanticleers enter this matchup having won four straight, have one of the best running games, averaging 191.8 yards per game, and face the next-to-last team in the nation against the run, Georgia Southern, which is allowing an average of 222.7 yards per game on the ground. Coastal Carolina gives up plenty of yards on the ground at 185.7 per game, but Georgia Southern is only 90th in rushing, averaging 137.6 yards per game. Coastal Carolina has covered the spread in five of its last six games and in four of its last five games against a team from the East Division of the Sun Belt. Look for Coastal Carolina to run the ball until Georgia Southern stops them, which is likely not to happen, as the Eagles' defense against the run is so poor.
Over/Under Pick for Coastal Carolina vs. Georgia Southern
