Northern Illinois Huskies on the Rise: Strong Performance Expected Against Georgia State

Northern Illinois Huskies had a strong season last year, and this year appears to measure up. They are 5-2 ATS over their last seven games, 8-0 ATS in their last eight road matches, and 4-2 ATS in their last eight games against the Sun Belt Conference. Comparatively, Georgia State has struggled; they are 1-4 ATS over their last five home games, 3-7 ATS over their last 10 November games, and 3-11-1 ATS in their last 15 contests. The Huskies have shown their offensive depth over their last few matches, going OVER the total in five of their six games. With an impressive showing thus far, and Georgia State less composed, Northern Illinois has a good chance of repeating past success.
