Army vs Florida Gulf Coast Prediction
I’m not a fan of backing a team that hasn’t played in forever and Florida Gulf Coast hasn’t played in three weeks. That’s a long layoff and who knows what to expect or what the motivation level is here. With that said, Army didn’t finish the regular season well and a win over Elon isn’t enough for me to forget that. Long layoff or not, Florida Gulf Coast is an above-average offensive side that’s top-100 in field goal percentage and three-point percentage. This is also a home game for Florida Gulf Coast with Daytona being a four-hour car ride from campus. Not sure how many people actually show up, but if there are fans in the building, they’ll be in favor of the Eagles. Oddsmakers are telling you what they think of Army with this massive line. I’ll follow their thinking. Give me Florida Gulf Coast.
