Murray State Racers vs. Georgia State Panthers Prediction

I’m leaning towards Georgia State here. The Racers have simply been getting crushed and run over by whoever they’ve gone up against, and I think this is a good spot for Georgia State to get a feel good win to build some momentum with Sun Belt play just around the corner. All in all, I think that Georgia State runs away with this one. It’s a big number, but I’d lay it with the Panthers here.
