  • Austin Peay has lost each of its last three day games.
  • Georgia State has won the first half in 24 of its last 30 games against non-AP-ranked opponents at a neutral venue.

Austin Peay vs Georgia State Prediction

I’ll probably lean toward Georgia State, but you’ll likely be able to call this one either way. The Panthers shot a ridiculous 70.2 percent from the field with 32 rebounds and 15 team assists in their latest win over North Carolina Central. The 15 turnovers were the only real blemish. Georgia State has scored 71 or more points in all three of their wins, and 67 or fewer in the two losses.

As for Austin Peay, they’re coming off a middling 40 percent from the field and a 35-30 rebounding deficit in their latest loss to Morehead State. The Governors have been below 69 points in four of five games so far. If Georgia State can keep the pace quick and hit some shots consistently I don’t think Austin Peay will keep up.

Andrew Jett's Pick: Georgia State Panthers -1.5
