NIU hits the road for the third time this season, and it will battle Georgia State in Atlanta. The Huskies have had a difficult time thus far, losing all three games, including a setback against FCS Illinois State at home. Due to a coaching regime change, the Huskies were left with a bare cupboard, and it has showed. The Huskies have allowed 41.0 points per game (PPG) in two matchups against FBS opponents, too.
Georgia State has some pretty solid pieces in place, and the Panthers should add to the woes of NIU. The offense has scored 30 or more points in all three games this season, including a 44-30 loss at UFC against a Big 12 defense on the road last time out. The Panthers are also 3-0 against the spread (ATS), and the high-octane offense should have no trouble moving through what has been a very giving Huskies defense.
NIU vs Georgia State prediction: Georgia State -10.5 (-110) available at time of publishing. Playable to -12.5.
