    Early Group of 5 Plays this week
    Gotta be really selective when playing Group of 5 teams, because while you can often see things Vegas doesn't, there's still a ton of variance here ("variance" meaning "shit not making a lot of sense")

    Jumping on Marshall -3.5 at So Miss.

    Marshall off a bye, So Miss off a bad loss to Charlotte. Marshall the better team in every way. They have two QBs, one a bit more risk/reward, and one a bit more of a game manager, but they've won easily with both including a 31-7 win over what was supposed to be a behemoth FAU team this year.

    Both QBs will be healthy for this game. Home field advantage at So Miss not worth much. Very much okay with -3.5 here, can't see it dropping.


    Also keep an eye out for the QB situation at App State. We saw what that team looks like without Jalen Moore and Zac Thomas -- helpless. Neither backup could tie his own shoes, and coach Satterfield was livid over the beginner-level type mistakes each backup was making in that game.

    Now Coastal Carolina isn't Georgia Southern by any stretch, but they have surprised many this year.

    If Zac Thomas is out, Coastal Carolina +14.5 at home is a play for me for sure.

    It is hard to believe that the line is so low. Marshall is 6-1 ATS in their last 7 games against So. Miss. They are 5-2 this season while So, Miss is 3-4. Solid pick here Ralphie. The line is -3 at several Vegas Shops.
