Troy vs James Madison Picks & Props
TROY vs JMU Picks
NCAAF PicksWith how fast the Dukes are going to come out and how easily Troy's offense should be to game plan against, James Madison should be able to jump out to an early lead in this matchup. The Dukes rank fifth in first-half scoring, averaging nearly 23 points per game. Troy, on the other hand, averages just 13.2 points, and as mentioned before, its schedule is littered with teams with losing records. This James Madison defense is going to hit the Trojans like a freight train.
James Madison should have little trouble moving the ball, but Troy's one-dimensional offense could struggle against a Dukes defense allowing just 3.4 yards per carry. With the Trojans leaning heavily on the ground game and lacking a reliable passing attack, expect James Madison to control the matchup and keep the total under 50.5.
James Madison looks to bounce back after last week’s loss to App State against a Troy team that has struggled against winning opponents. The Dukes hold a significant offensive advantage, while the Trojans are averaging just 11.5 points per game against teams with winning records. With the rest advantage, expect James Madison to roll and cover the spread.
The Dukes should come out swinging, build an early lead and keep their foot on the gas. Meanwhile, Troy's one-dimensional offense could struggle against JMU's stout run defense. I'll combo JMU -20.5, first-half -12.5 and under 50.5 for a fun 5.76x sweat!
