South Alabama vs UL Monroe Prediction

The UL Monroe Warhawks have not only lost 10 straight games, not winning since December 11, but they’re 6-13 ATS on the season. UL Monroe just has no betting value in its current form. The South Alabama Jaguars have four road wins, an above-average defense that travels, and they’ve covered six of their last nine games. South Alabama is a profitable 10-7 ATS on the season. Thick line, but UL Monroe is awful and has scored 60 or fewer points in each of its last three games. Not ideal against a South Alabama team that’s top-10 in points allowed per game and defensive field goal percentage. I’ll lay the points with South Alabama on the road. 

Randy Chambers's Pick: South Alabama -12.5
