James Madison is just 4-4 ATS on the season and 1-4 ATS as double-digit favorites this season. James Madison is 3-9 ATS in its last 12 Games as a double-digit favorite. Georgia State doesn’t play defense and can’t finish drives offensively, but James Madison doesn’t cover big numbers. It’s Georgia State or pass for me.
