The Jacksonville State Gamecocks welcome the Sam Houston Bearkats to town for a Conference USA game on Saturday night. The Gamecocks head into the game with five consecutive victories, while covering four of those outings. However, it's a lot to lay the 17 points, although JSU did cover its only game as a double-digit favorite this season in a 49-7 win over Eastern Kentucky.
However, it's all about the point total for the Bearkats. Jacksonville State has split the over/under in the past four games, but it is coming off a shutout win at New Mexico State last time out in a 24-0 win on October 28. Sam Houston has scored 14 or fewer points in four of the past five games and 24 or fewer points in all seven games against FBS opponents, which are all losses, by the way. They've failed to score a touchdown in three of the past four games, posting exactly three points in each of those outings.
Sam Houston vs Jacksonville State prediction: Sam Houston team total under 14.5 (-108) at time of publishing. Playable to -120.
