Bowl season is now in full swing, and while the games have been coming rather sporadically, we will see a busier schedule on Saturday. MyBookie Sportsbook 2023/24 Bowls Odds for College Football Game Lines | Georgia State Vs Utah State Armed Potato Bowl Game 2023

All told, there are no less than 7 games to choose from once the weekend rolls around. The games that come around in the early part of bowl season are always a little tougher to predict given that they tend to feature teams that not too many of us followed in any great detail over the course of the season. You also have to take into account that some teams might be more inspired to win than others, which is damn near impossible to figure out. Both of these teams finished the season at 6-6, so there is the goal of having a winning year being dangled like a carrot. The Aggies are favored by 2 ½, with the point total for this one set at a rather lofty 59 ½.

Georgia State Panthers

It’s hard to imagine that the Panthers were 6-1 at some point in the season when you consider how things finished up for them. They seemed to take their foot off the gas as soon as they became bowl eligible, losing 5 in a row to close things out. The defense, although not totally to blame, has to shoulder a lot of the burden, as they surrendered an average of over 40 PPG through that 5-game losing skid. You do have to wonder how they are going to pull out of that slump and find a way to slow down the Aggies offense on Saturday. The Panthers have gone just 1-4 ATS in their last 4 games, failing to cover in all but one of the games that they started as the underdog. The UNDER has hit in 6 of their last 9 games overall.

Utah State Aggies

The Aggies played the final month of the season under a fair bit of pressure. They were 3-5 heading into their final 4 games of the season, with a bowl spot looking like a bit of a longshot. They ended up going 3-1 through those final 4 games, becoming bowl eligible in the last game of the season, which included a 44-41 thriller over New Mexico in the final game. That win, as well as the way they played through the final month, must have the Aggies on a high, which could well carry over into this one. While you might already be penciling in the Aggies for the win, it is worth noting that they have struggled versus teams from the Sun Belt, going 2-11 ATS I the last 13 meetings. The OVER has hit in 8 of their last 11 games overall.

When it comes to bowl games, I think there is a lot to be said about current form. Yes, the Aggies have struggled against Sun Belt teams, but the Panthers were brutal coming down the stretch, and you do have to wonder if they are committed to pulling out of that slump.
