Georgia State Panthers vs. Appalachian State Mountaineers Key Stats

Georgia State's defense has been poor overall this season, but they can attribute this to what's been a somewhat challenging schedule so far. Entering Wednesday, the Panthers rank 113th in the country when it comes to total yards allowed and 115th in points allowed. Appalachian State has a pretty good offense, too, led by senior quarterback Chase Brice. Brice has already thrown for 1,674 yards and 18 passing TDs, establishing himself as one of the best QBs in the Sun Belt Conference. He's also thrown just three picks, which is significant because Georgia State has excelled at forcing turnovers despite their 2-4 record. The Mountaineers do have a solid receiving corps, so expect them to put a lot of pressure on this struggling Panthers defense.

Georgia State's offense has been key in their past two victories, as they scored 41 last game and 31 the game before that. Their offensive game plan centers around senior running backs Tucker Gregg and Jamyest Williams. These two have run the ball in eight times and recorded 863 yards combined. QB Darren Grainger also utilizes his legs pretty often as he's rushed for 303 himself, in addition to respectable passing stats. Appalachian State's defense has been vulnerable at times, and two of their three losses were in games where the run defense let them down.

Georgia State Panthers vs. Appalachian State Mountaineers Betting Prediction

It makes sense that the Mountaineers are sizeable favorites here, but as the home team, it might be difficult for them to cover. The road team has covered six of the past seven head-to-head meetings, so the best bet here is to target the over. The over has hit in three of the past four meetings, and both offenses have been clicking in the past few weeks. Look for a lot of scoring tonight from these Sun Belt schools.

Prediction: Over 60 (-110)
