We like the Jacksonville State Gamecocks to defeat the Middle Tennessee State Blue Raiders on Wednesday at 7:30pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Jacksonville State are much better than 3-3. Their losses came earlier in the season and have now won three straight games.

The Gamecocks have covered the spread seven games in a row in conference play.

MTSU have lost nine straight games played on the road and have looked very bad early on this season.

The first time and only time these teams met was last season when the Gamecocks won by 15 as a road underdog. Now, they are at home and should win by even more.

JVST has blown out their last three opponents. Their offense is clicking on all cylinders right now.

Not to mention that the Blue Raiders are only averaging 16.4 points per game. That ranks them 5th last in the FBS this year.

Jacksonville State won't have trouble scoring again today. Lay the points on the home team.
