Anthony Dell’Orso has 10.5 PPG with 4.9 RPG to cap off the group of double-digit scorers for Campbell so far this season. Jay Pal has 9.5 PPG with a team-high 7.3 RPG to lead the Camels on the glass as well this season. As a team, Campbell is averaging 72.5 PPG on 47.6% shooting from the field, 36.9% from three and 70.7% from the foul line this season.
The Georgia Southern Eagles will look to bounce back from a 74-71 loss to Morehead State last time out. Andrei Savrasov leads the Eagles in scoring with 13.6 PPG along with 6.9 RPG while Jalen Finch has 10 PPG with 3.5 RPG and a team-high 3.5 APG to lead the Eagles in assists and to finish off the pair of double-digit scorers for Georgia Southern this season.

Campbell is 0-4 ATS in their last 4 games overall and 2-8 ATS in their last 10 games following a win while the over is 5-1 in their last 6 games overall. Georgia Southern is 3-8 ATS in their last 11 home games and 5-13 ATS in their last 18 home games against a team with a losing road record while the over is 4-1 in their last 5 home games.
I get why it could be worth a look to take Campbell here in a near coin flip, but the problem is that Campbell hasn’t been able to get the job done when they’ve battled teams on the same level as them. Georgia Southern hasn’t been a world-beater, but they do their best work at home and I think they can pick up another win and cover in this one at home. I’ll side with Georgia Southern here.
