Top Georgia Southern vs. Old Dominion predictions

After simulating Old Dominion vs. Georgia Southern 10,000 times, SportsLine model is going Under 45.5 points at betting apps. The Over has hit in 60% of games involving either of these teams this season. This is the first total involving Georgia Southern that's under 51.5 points. 

Johnson was a big bright spot at QB for Georgia Southern in the loss to James Madison. The Eagles average 275 pass yards per game but ranks 117th in rushing. Both teams have defenses that rank higher than their offensive counterparts. 

Old Dominion showcased its defense in the gritty win at Appalachian State. Offensively, however, ODU has been one of the least productive units in FBS, averaging just 18 ppg. The only time the Monarchs have scored more than 21 points was in a blowout win over Norfolk State. QB Quinn Henicle and RB Devin Roche have combined for 667 rushing yards. These defenses plus the run-first approach of ODU gives the Under an edge. 

SportsLine's model is projecting 43 combined points in this one, making the Under the value 60% of the time. See the model's spread and money-line picks at SportsLine.
