This game is going to comedown to the offense, and the better offensive team is Georgia Southern. Louisiana-Monroe is averaging only 18.5 points per game and they are going to struggle to get the offense going here. Georgia Southern is going to go over their season average of 31.3 points per game and that is going to be the difference as Georgia Southern gets the job done.
