The Georgia Southern Eagles will try to upset the Troy Trojans as the two programs battle for an automatic bid in the final of the Sun Belt Championship tonight.
The Eagles regularly play to big totals, and I’m expecting more of the same as I back the Over in my Georgia Southern vs. Troy predictions.
Read on for a full breakdown of this conference championship game in my free college basketball picks for Monday, March 9.
Troy vs Georgia Southern prediction
Who will win Troy vs Georgia Southern?
Georgia Southern is the hot team right now, but Troy has been the class of the Sun Belt Conference all season and has won the last four meetings between these teams. While I’m expecting a close game, the Trojans are the pick to walk away with an automatic bid to March Madness.
Troy vs Georgia Southern best bet
Troy vs Georgia Southern best bet: Over 150 (-110)
The Georgia Southern Eagles and Troy Trojans may not be among the most efficient offenses in college basketball, but they both put up points nonetheless. The Eagles are averaging 81.5 points per game on the year, while the Trojans nearly match them at 80.4.
That showed in the first meeting between these teams this season, which ended with 161 points scored.
The Eagles have played to totals well above tonight’s number in each of their last six games, all of which have been wins. With both offenses clicking throughout the Sun Belt Championship, I’m backing the Over again in tonight’s game.

Along with the Over, I’m also going to take the Eagles to cover in the championship game. While Troy won the regular-season matchup between these teams, it was only a five-point game, and Georgia Southern has covered in each of its last six games overall.
I’ll also take Tyren Moor to score Over 18.5 points, something he’s done in three of his last four games.

Our beyond the arc SGP: Rockstar Spudd
For my lottery SGP, I’m going to bank on a big game from Georgia Southern guard Spudd Webb, who came up huge in the semifinal win against the Marshall Thundering Herd.
I’m taking Webb to hit Over 1.5 shots from beyond the arc — something he’s done twice in this tournament — and dish out at least three assists after averaging 2.5 per game for the season.
