What to Know

A Sun Belt battle is on tap between the Georgia State Panthers and the South Alabama Jaguars at 2 p.m. ET Saturday at Georgia State Convocation Center. The teams split their matchups last year, with South Alabama winning the first 74-65 at home and Georgia State taking the second 69-62.

The Panthers' 2022 ended with a 63-47 defeat against the James Madison Dukes on Thursday.

Meanwhile, South Alabama's 2022 ended with a 64-50 loss against the Georgia Southern Eagles on Thursday.

Barring any buzzer beaters, Georgia State is expected to win a tight contest. But bettors beware: they are only 1-4 against the spread when favored.

Both of these teams will be looking to put their recent losses behind them and walk away with a win. Neither squad could put together much of an offensive attack, so expect every point to count.
