Why Georgia State can cover
The Panthers only have to look at last season's matchup between the two to have a high level of confidence for Friday's game.

This year's team is more prolific through the air, averaging over 40 more passing yards per game, while the 2024 Panthers are giving up over 50 fewer passing yards to opponents than last year's squad.
Quarterback Zach Gibson has provided a spark for GSU as he's completing 68.3% of his passes over the last three games, which leads the Sun Belt since Week 7. He has four touchdowns and zero interceptions, and he has two playmakers at his disposal in running back Freddie Brock and wideout Ted Hurst. Brock is averaging over 100 scrimmage yards over his last three games, while Hurst has found the endzone six times over his last six outings. See who to back at SportsLine.
Why UConn can cover
UConn has a multi-dimensional ground games as it is one of two teams in the nation with three running backs with 350-plus rushing yards. Durell Robinson leads the brigade with 565 rushing yards and a 7.6 rushing average, the latter of which ranks fifth in the NCAA. Jayden Brown (360 yards) and Cam Edwards (357 yards) have both notched 100-yard games this season as the Huskies are putting up nearly 200 yards on the ground per game.
That success in the run game often leads into playaction opportunities and shots downfield, and few are better in hauling in deep passes than wideout Skyler Bell. He has 581 yards on the season, while his 20.8 yards per reception ranks second-best in FBS (min. 25 receptions). The Wisconsin transfer is flanked by another former Big Ten wideout in TJ Sheffield, formerly of Purdue, who leads the team with 32 receptions and is coming off a 9-141-1 stat line a few weeks ago in a win over Temple.
