Georgia Southern vs. Louisiana Pick Prediction 9/26/2020
Georgia Southern vs. Louisiana—Free pick is Georgia Southern Eagles +15. Eagles come off the bye week as their game with FAU is postponed as the Owls have 11 players testing positive for COVID. Eagles have experience on offense in senior quarterback Shai Werts and running style quarterback and seniors in his backfield. There is stability in the head coaching ranks with Chad Lunsford in his fourth season. This is a program that has made a bowl the past two seasons. Eagles are a running team and that can frustrate and passing offense like Louisiana. After their win at Iowa St the Ragin Cajuns needed overtime to outlast Georgia St last week winning by three. Louisiana has inexperience on their defensive line and surrendered 223 rushing yards. Two tough ack to back games for Louisiana and now they face a fresh Eagles beating an FCS team at home in their opener with time to improve off that effort. Play Georgia Southern +15.
Florida vs. Ole Miss Pick Prediction 9/26/2020
Florida vs. Ole Miss—College football pick is Florida Gators -12.5. Dan Mullen enters his third season with the Gators program and has seen offensive improvement. Team averaged 427 yards and 35 points in 2018 and last year it was 431 yards and 33.2 points per contest. Quarterback Kyle Trask returns for his senior season. Mullen did raise the Mississippi St program in his time with the Bulldogs. While improving the offense the defense still held their own allowing 18.3 points and 320 yards per game. They did a good job of getting off the field on third down. Lane Kiffin starts his first season at Ole Miss. His team returns only five on defense. Kiffin an offensive minded coach that will need time to get his players and to get his system going. It is tough for a first year head coach in a pandemic. This was a very poor third down offense last year ranking 97th in the nation. Defensively Ole Miss allowed 66.6% completion rate near the bottom of college football. Too much to fix for Kiffin. Play Florida -12.5.

Knights are a program looking for a major bowl game from a smaller conference, so margin of victory is very important in a shortened regular season. UCF has covered three of four against the Pirates. East Carolina inexperienced on defense returning only four starters on defense. Pirates play their first game of the season so conditioning and lack of experience is a huge concern. This program has been poor on defense for four straight seasons. They surrendered nearly 39 points per game last year ranking near the bottom of college football. Play Central Florida -25.5.
