EARLY SUNBELT CHAMP WINNER - WON 9 OF L10!
(NCAAF) Coastal Carolina vs. Troy, 12/03/2022 3:30 PM, Score: 26 - 45
Point Spread: 7.50 | -109.00 Coastal Carolina (Away)
Result: Loss
This is an 8* SUNBELT CHAMPIONSHIP WINNER on Coastal Carolina.

These teams last met on October 28th in 2021 and the Chanticleers earned the 35-28 win. They were favored by 21 in that one, so didn't cover the spread obviously.

Now they're the dog.

Coastal Carolina finished 9-2, getting smoked 47-7 by James Madison last weekend. The Chanticleers were already in the Championship Game though. THey average 29.5 PPG led by QB Jarrett Guest. Overall they allow 28.7, but they do have 30 sacks this season.

Troy is coming off a 48-19 win over Arkansas State. Gunnar Watson had 144 yards passing. The Trojans' strength lies on the defensive end where they allow 16.8 PPG this year, while averaging 24.6.

CC has history on its side, as it's won the last three meetings in this series. Each game has been close.

I just can't see Troy running away with this one. Look for the CHANTICLEERS superior offense to keep them in this one late.

Grab the points.

Good luck, NP
