Louisiana Monroe vs. Southern Mississippi Picks

Point Spread Pick for Louisiana Monroe vs. Southern Mississippi

  • Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles -12 (4 Units)

The Golden Eagles have won five of their last six games, while the Warhawks have lost four of their last six games. Southern Mississippi has the edge here because they’re balanced offensively with one of the best passing games in the country and a good ground game. They are facing a team that is one of the worst in the country against the pass, so expect them to air out the ball.

Louisiana Monroe won’t be as successful offensively because they’re one-dimensional, with one of the worst passing games in the country (so the injuries at QB won't help matters) and a decent ground game. The Golden Eagles don’t have to worry about the Warhawks beating them through the air, which will allow them to stick the box and slow down the run. Take Southern Mississippi to cover the spread.

Over/Under Pick for ULM vs. Southern Mississippi

  • Over 50 (4 Units)

The Warhawks and Golden Eagles played over the total in two of their last three games. Louisiana Monroe averages 16.7 points per game. They run the ball 55 percent of the time with the 70th-ranked ground game in the country. They are facing a team that is 74th against the run and is giving up 25.1 points per game. The Golden Eagles average 30.7 points per game. They throw the ball 46 percent of the time with the 47th-ranked passing attack in the country, and they're facing a team that is 125th against the pass and is giving up 30.9 points per game. Expect these teams to score enough points to push the score over the total.
