Chattanooga vs. Georgia State Prediction

I’m on Georgia State here. I like the fight that the Panthers put up against a solid Georgia Tech team and I think this can help Chattanooga build some confidence up ahead of a date with an SEC team in Vanderbilt up next. The Mocs didn’t get off of the ground against Tennessee, and while I think they will likely have some better luck here, I think Georgia State handles business. Give me Georgia State here.
