The Pick: My 200 Dime winner is the Jacksonville State Gamecocks..
The Line: The current line is +3 at the majority of books in Vegas and offshore as of 10:30 am EST. Be sure to shop around for the best line available.
Note: If your line is anywhere from +2 1/2 to +4, I advise you buying the 1/2 point up on Jax State.
My Analysis
Going right back to the well again tonight.
Well, it's Deja Vu for the 2nd straight week.
Last Saturday in Conference USA I handed you a 100 dime winner on the Ragin Cajuns (+3) at home over Texas State and they won outright 42-39.
Well, it's Deja Vu for the 2nd straight week.
Same Conference. Home dog. I expect the same result.
Now I get the fact Kennesaw has won 7 in a row since opening the season 0-2 with losses at Wake Forest 10-9 and Indiana 56-9.
And in this 7 game winning streak they have played only 2 road games but look who they beat.
Let's start with 4-5 FIU, who has lost 4 of their last 6 and 3-6 New Mexico State, who after trailing 24-7 at the half, had multiple chances in the 2nd half to pull off the upset.
They held the Owls scoreless in the 2nd half and after getting it to 24-21, threw a pick at the KSU 35 with 3:25 to go and missed a 50-yard field goal to force OT with 32 seconds left.
In this winning streak, they have only beat one winning team: 5-4 Louisiana Tech.
For the life of me I can't believe they are favored against this Jacksonville St team.
The Gamecocks are riding a 4-game winning streak and playing just their 4th home game of the year.
In the previous 3 they ripped Liberty 34-24 as a 6 1/2 point dog, ripped Murray State 45-10 and ripped Delaward 38-25 getting the same number they are getting today.
I know they say Kennesaw State has a solid run defense but against the #1 run defense in the conference, Jax State ran for 275.
This is a Jax State team that since joining division one are 22-12 SU and ATS including 11-3 ATS at home.
Conversely, Kennesaw State is still just 2-5 SU against winning opponents and 6-13 ATS in their division one history.
Last perspective: Last year when these two met Kennesaw State was a 17-point underdog.....and lost by 39 points!!!!!!
And they are laying points today????????
Just like last week, the wrong team is favored and I will gladly bring down the house with this monster play on the home team.
I will be shocked if the Gamecocks don't win the game outright!!!!!!
