Georgia State vs Coastal Carolina Prediction
There’s much better options on the week 14 CFB card, but I lean toward Coastal Carolina in the slight underdog role. Coastal Carolina has shown it can win on the road and can become bowl eligible with a victory. The Georgia State Panthers don’t have anything to play for, and they’ve given up 30 or more points in 7 of their last 9 games. In a near pick em game, give me the team that has something to play for. That’s Coastal Carolina.
