Model called it
The model favored JXST to win, and the call landed.
Jacksonville State is absolutely rolling into this one as a massive favorite, sitting at 97 percent win probability, and it's not hard to see why. The oddsmakers have got them at 20 and a half points, and when you combine that Vegas spread with Jacksonville State's Elo rating advantage and the way they've dominated opponents over their last five games, this looks like a mismatch on paper. Eastern Kentucky's gonna need to play the game of their lives to pull off this upset, but they're sitting at just 3 percent to make it happen. This one's got blowout written all over it.
