VMI vs George Washington Prediction

The VMI Keydets have been taking their licks on the road this season, and they just don’t have the offensive horses to compete above their class. VMI has just two double-digit scorers and had a game against Pitt where it scored 43 points. The George Washington Colonials are defending well and for the most part, beating up on the teams they’re supposed to beat up on. You’d like to see more covers, but George Washington should win this game comfortably. Thick line, but I’ll lay the points regardless.
