UConn vs. Georgia State prediction, odds, spread, time: 2024 Week 10 college football picks by proven model

The UConn Huskies will look to become bowl eligible when they host the Georgia State Panthers on Friday night. UConn (5-3) has won four of its last five, and a sixth victory on the season not only would lock up a bowl bid, but it would move the Huskies one step closer to clinching a winning season for the first time since 2010. Meanwhile, Georgia State (2-5) is hoping this non-conference matchup against an independent school allows the team to return to its winning ways. The Panthers have dropped four straight games — all within the Sun Belt — but they’ve won their last two non-conference games.

After opening at -8.5, the Huskies are now 7.5-point favorites according to the latest Georgia State vs. UConn odds via SportsLine consensus.

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. Georgia State romped to a 35-14 victory in the only meeting between the programs. 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
The Huskies should capitalize on a GSU program that is trending in the wrong direction. Not only has Georgia State lost six straight road games — its longest streak in eight years — but it also has failed to score over 30 points in eight straight away games. Only five teams in all of college football have fewer rushing touchdowns (five) than the Panthers, as they’ll lean heavily on the pass. However, defending through the air happens to be Connecticut’s strength.
The Huskies haven’t allowed a passing touchdown in five straight games while picking off four passes during that span. They’ve also held opponents to only 141.6 passing yards over this five-game run, while the UConn offense has taken off. It has shown great balance with nine rushing versus eight passing scores over the last five games, and the Huskies should frequent the endzone often versus a GSU defense that’s allowed at least 33 points in each of its last three road games.
