Austin Peay Governors
Point Spread Pick
Austin Peay +48.5(-115)

The Austin Peay Governors head down between the hedges to take on the Georgia Bulldogs in an obvious mismatch. However, the Govs do roll into the game with a little bit of confidence and steam. Austin Peay played an FBS foe in Week 1, albeit the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders of Conference USA, and the Governors boat-raced them 34-14 in their own stadium. The Governors dictated most facets of the game, totaling 343 yards of offense, to just 153 for MTSU, and they held the Blue Raiders to 0-for-12 on third downs. Austin Peay gobbled up 150 rushing yards, to just 44 allowed, and if not for nine penalties, it would have been a near flawless performance.

Georgia picked up a 45-7 win over Marshall in the opening game, as QB Gunner Stockton posted 190 yards and two touchdowns before getting a breather in the second half. He also ran for two scores in what amounted to a glorified scrimmage. Can the Governors actually give the Dawgs a much better game than Marshall did? It’s possible. Austin Peay is undersized, but it should play with a lot of heart. It won’t sniff a potential upset, but it should be able to stay without seven touchdowns. The spread on this game is out of line. Even a 55-7 rout is a winning ticket.

Austin Peay +48.5 (-110) at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
