Stetson vs West Georgia Prediction

Give me Stetson here. It’s going to come down to the offense and the better offensive team, and Stetson is going to continue the offensive success. Stetson is averaging 72.9 points and they are going to have no issue getting the job done here. West Georgia isn’t going to score enough, and it’s going to be Stetson who is going to end up on top here. I really don’t trust either team, but Stetson will cover the spread.
