Pick

I’m leaning towards Southern here. The Jaguars have been all of nothing for the most part in conference play, they either lose outright or win convincingly while the Hornets have almost been all nothing as they’ve disappointed more often than not this season. The Jaguars continue to be one of the best in the SWAC and I think they get it done here. Give me Southern laying the points.
