2025-02-06Middle Tennessee vs Jacksonville State Prediction

You can make an argument that Middle Tennessee is the better team, and the Blue Raiders just beat Jacksonville State last month by 17 points. However, we’re being asked to lay less than a bucket with Jacksonville State at home. The Gamecocks are 9-0 SU on their home court this season. Jacksonville State has also won six straight games and has covered five of those victories. With an above-average offense and a top-30 field goal percentage defense, it’s hard to bet against Jacksonville State at home or with these soft lines. I like Jacksonville State to get revenge against Middle Tennessee on Thursday night.
