Georgia State vs. Appalachian State: Week 10 Betting Odds, Prediction

It's been a rough go of late for the Panthers, who enter this game having lost three straight contests. Head coach Dell McGee has a career 2-18 record in conference play with Georgia State, and one would think things would have to turn around quickly in order for him to confidently remain at his post moving forward. On the other side, the Mountaineers have had some euphoric highs and some disappointing lows. They took down James Madison a couple weeks ago in what was their best win of the season, but fell last week 19-3 against Georgia Southern and showed little life. If you are looking for some betting advice for the matchup, we've got you covered. Here are the latest odds for the game, courtesy of BetMGM. Georgia State vs. Appalachian State game odds : All college football odds via BetMGM Spread: Georgia State +5.5 (-115), Appalachian State -5.5 (-105) Money Line: Georgia State +175, Appalachian State -210 Over-Under: Over 55.5 (-110), Under 55.5 (-110) .oembed-frame { width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0; border: 0; } Georgia State vs. Appalachian State prediction, pick: Despite the three-game skid, the Panthers feature some of the most impactful players in the Sun
