The Georgia Southern Eagles head to Center Parc Stadium on Saturday, formerly Turner Field and the home of the 1996 Summer Olympics opening ceremony, track and field events, and the Atlanta Braves. The Eagles don't care about any of that. They need one more victory to attain bowl eligibility, and they can do so against their in-state conference rivals.
Georgia Southern enters on a roll, winning three in a row, while covering six straight, with an 8-1 ATS record on the season. Georgia State has an identical SU record at 5-4, but it has been stumbling lately, dropping three of the past four outings, while also going 1-3 ATS after a 5-0 ATS start. A 39-23 win at Appalachian State last week might have rekindled things a bit for the Panthers, though. The over is 2-1 in the past three conference road games for Georgia Southern, while it is 4-1 in the past five overall for Georgia State. Let's look high for the total, but don't get carried away.
Georgia Southern vs Georgia State prediction: Over 56.5 (+103) at time of publishing. Playable to -110.
