James Madison @ Louisville Picks & Props
JMU vs LOU Picks
NCAAF Picks
The issue JMU will have in this matchup is being undersized and lacking physicality in the trenches. Brown's ability to create chunk plays (7.1 YPC a season ago) will exploit that
Because most of their drives ended on big plays, Louisville only passed once in the redzone with Miller Moss in its opener against Eastern Kentucky. Projecting those targets is a bit of a guessing game. However, at this number, I think Skinner is underpriced since I expect him to see a good amount of volume in those spots.
JMU has been a trendy Group of Five team to pick as an underdog ever since they've transitioned to the FBS. But causal college football fans might not realize that the Dukes could take a little step back in 2025. And this Louisville team is arguably the best team they've faced since becoming an FBS team. The Cardinals are much better. Sneak under the two touchdowns and lay the points with the Louisville.
James Madison's defensive front issues plus Louisville's willingless to run the ball should keep this moderately low scoring.
Jeff Brohm as a double-digit favorite has been a great fade
