Coastal Carolina vs Jacksonville State Prediction 

Jacksonville State comes into this matchup with a 2-0 record to start the season, but they have yet to play a D-1 team, so we don’t know much about them. Coastal Carolina is 2-1 and they beat a decent Winthrop team by six points last time out. The Chanticleers played very strong defense in that win and they have rebounded the ball very well to start the season. I don’t love this game at all, but I am going to back Coastal Carolina in this one, as this is a big step up in competition for Jax State.
