Georgia State vs Coastal Carolina Prediction

I’m backing Georgia State here. Coastal’s been a solid cover team on the road this season, but Georgia State has been downright money on home soil this year. Back-to-back losses derailed what looked like a path for Georgia State to have a strong chance at the Sun Belt title game, but I still like their QB play under Cameran Brown, and I’m looking for Brown to lead the Panthers past an inconsistent Coastal Carolina squad here at home. Give me Georgia State in this one.
