The Jacksonville State Gamecocks and the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs meet Saturday in college Football action from Joe Aillet Stadium. Here’s a LA Tech vs Jacksonville State Prediction. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best Louisiana Tech vs Jacksonville State pick.
Jacksonville State Gamecocks Betting Preview
The Gamecocks kicked off their year with losses to Coastal Carolina, Louisville and Eastern Michigan before righting the ship. The next five games were wins over Southern Miss, Kennesaw State, New Mexico State, Middle Tennessee and Liberty.
In the matchup with Liberty last Wednesday, the Gamecocks scored points in every quarter along the way to a 31-21 victory. QB Tyler Huff had just 95 passing yards but rushed for 130. Tre Stewart did most of the work though, rushing 27 times for 232 yards and four scores.
Louisiana Tech Bulldogs Betting Preview
Over on the Louisiana Tech side, they beat Nicholls State in their opener before losses to NC State, Tulsa and FIU in the next trio. The Bulldogs would beat Middle Tennessee and UTEP alongside losses to New Mexico State and Sam Houston over the next four games.
In the Sam Houston loss, the Bulldogs held a slim 3-2 lead going into the second half and eventually fell in a tough one 9-3. Evan Bullock finished with 148 pass yards and a pick. Leading the rush was Omiri Wiggins with 11 totes for 49 yards.
LA Tech vs Jacksonville State Prediction
I’ll lean toward Jacksonville State. Probably not touching it, though. The Gamecocks were quite one-sided in their latest win, but everything worked out in the end. Jacksonville State posted 458 total yards, with 363 of those coming on the ground. There were a couple of blemishes otherwise: 12 penalties for 115 yards and a 3-of-9 rate on third-down conversions.
As for LA Tech, they’re coming off a pretty miserable loss to Sam Houston. The defense was good overall but couldn’t overcome the four turnovers (three fumbles) and 3.9 yards per play from the offense. The Bulldogs need a real shot in the arm if they’re going to keep pace here.
