Jackson State vs Kennesaw State Prediction
We’re getting a boatload of points with a battle tested Jackson State side that’s played on the road against Arkansas, Auburn, and Louisville. It’s starting to pay off, as Jackson State just upset Louisiana in a defensive slugfest. Kennesaw State has had issues getting stops defensively, and that includes just allowing 100 points to FGCU. We also saw Kennesaw State lose outright to Orlando Roberts as an 8.5-point favorite. I’m not laying double-digit chalk with Kennesaw State. Give me Jackson State and the points.
