Arkansas State Red Wolves vs. South Alabama Jaguars Pick
Spread Pick for Arkansas State vs. South Alabama
- Arkansas State Red Wolves +210 (5 units)
The Arkansas State Red Wolves have been the better team on the offensive side of the football and have the momentum after last week. There is no rest advantage as both teams played last Saturday, but the injury report does not cause too much concern for us here in terms of key players not being able to be on the field. The turnover ratio shows a gap as well, with the Red Wolves being +2 while the Jags are sitting at -1. Jaylen Raynor has a 4:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio in his last three games and is moving the ball with big throws, so go with the Arkansas State Red Wolves to win this game.
Over/Under Pick for Arkansas State vs. South Alabama

On third downs, these teams are doing well at keeping drives going as South Alabama has converted on 36-of-90 (40.0%) of their attempts while Arkansas State is 35-of-90 (38.89%) so far. When looking at these defenses in the last three games, they are struggling to get stops and are giving up points.
