Jacksonville vs Central Arkansas Prediction
Jacksonville beat Central Arkansas by 10 points last month and has won all five meetings overall. Jacksonville is just 11-9-2 ATS on the season but is playing its best ball of the season and has won nine of its last 10 games. Jacksonville is looking more and more like a contender in the Atlantic Sun. Central Arkansas has lost nine of its last 10 games and has allowed 90-plus points in two of its last three games. Thick line for a team that’s not covering numbers, but Jacksonville is easily the better team over Central Arkansas. It’s Jacksonville or pass for me on Thursday night.
