Charleston Southern Buccaneers vs. Coastal Carolina Chanticleers Prediction

I’m on the Chanticleers here. I just don’t have high hopes for the Buccaneers and while Coastal looked horrid against Virginia, I think they get it back here. The Buccaneers haven’t looked good for some time and didn’t do anything against Vandy in week one and I’m hard pressed to imagine them doing anything here. I’ll side with Coastal, but ultimately there are better options on the board on Saturday.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Coastal Carolina -28.5
