Maine Black Bears vs. Georgia Southern Eagles Prediction
I’m on Georgia Southern here. I get the case to be made for an underdog in some spots but Maine is a below average FCS team, and we’ve seen them get crushed by far less than what they’re up against here. Georgia Southern is still a quality offense and really showed that in a beatdown win over Jacksonville State last time out. I’ll roll with the Eagles to get a big win and get back to .500 here.
