A Sun Belt battle is on tap between the James Madison Dukes and the Georgia Southern Eagles at 7 p.m. ET Saturday at Atlantic Union Bank Center. Georgia Southern should still be feeling good after a win, while James Madison will be looking to get back in the win column.

James Madison is the favorite in this one, with an expected 9-point margin of victory. They have failed bettors playing the spread in their past three games, so buyers beware.
