- Read below for Nebraska vs Ohio State prediction, picks, and odds
On Friday, November 1, 2024, college football fans get welcomed to some unusual Fall weather. The Georgia State Panthers take on the Connecticut Huskies tonight.
This game comes as Connecticut’s last home game of the 2024 season. After this week, the Huskies play their final three regular-season games on the road. Georgia State continues on the road next week versus James Madison.
The Connecticut Huskies are 7.5-point favorites over the Georgia State Panthers, with the over/under set at 50.5 points, according to DraftKings Sportsbook. The game will be on CBS Sports Network, with kickoff scheduled for 7:00 p.m. EDT.
Georgia State vs Connecticut Prediction
Connecticut is one tough team to figure out. Yes, they are 5-3, but the Independent has lost some tough games against ACC foes that were winnable. Maryland blew out the Huskies in their season opener. However, Jim Mora’s squad has looked much better since. Defensively, they allow a mere 20.4 points per game.

The Huskies run the ball a lot. Last week, against Rice, Connecticut had 44 rushing attempts. They ate up a lot of clock in the 17-10 win. Now, the Huskies amassed 181 yards on the ground. It will be their preferred mode of attack on this night, as the Panthers give up almost 200 yards a contest (5.7 a carry).
Durell Robinson, a Freshman, showed more of his game-breaking speed last week in the Rice victory. Despite only 15 rushing attempts, Robinson wound up with 132 yards and a touchdown. He averages 7.6 yards per attempt, and his ability to break tackles makes him a threat.
Georgia State On A Road Bender
Yes, Georgia State continues to play on the road. This is the third of four consecutive road games for the Panthers. So far, they lost to Marshall and Appalachian State. Overall, Georgia State started 2-1 in 2024 but has dropped four games in a row. They are currently 0-4 in the Sun Belt Conference.
The Panthers do not score a lot of points. Georgia State only averages 21.9 points per game while allowing 30.7. That -8.8 point differential is interesting.
The one worry with Connecticut is whether Nick Evers or Joe Fagnano can avoid mistakes. Last week, there were a few close calls on the ground, and an interception kept Rice in the game. Fagnano does have the experience. However, Connecticut does score more points per game, with Evers under center.
I’m predicting a narrow Huskies win and cover. Expect Connecticut to run the ball early and often on what could be a breezy night.
Georgia State-Connecticut Pick:
- Connecticut -7.5 (-108)
Georgia State vs Connecticut Spread

The First Quarter Spread Is 2.5. A good and fun lesson is to expect a tight game early here but for Connecticut to run the ball and gain a lead. Controlling the clock and keeping the Georgia State defense on the field will be vital here. Expect to see even more of Durell Robinson in this one. That -108 number is attractive here.

Georgia State vs Connecticut Head-to-Head
The programs have met only once, with the following result:
- Sep 9, 2023: Georgia State 35, Connecticut 14
The only meeting was last year when Georgia State defeated Connecticut at home. However, do not expect a one-sided result this time around. As we mentioned above, the running game will be vital in this contest, along with holding on to the football.
Sometimes, these games do jolt the system in a way. The weather will be a factor, with temperatures dropping from the 70s in the afternoon to the 50s as the game continues from Storrs tonight.

The upcoming college football game between Georgia State and UConn on November 1st is shaping up to be an exciting matchup. Both teams have had their fair share of ups and downs this season, making it difficult to predict the outcome of this game. However, with some analysis of the teams’ performances so far and consideration of the odds, we can make an educated guess on who might come out on top.
Georgia State currently has a record of 2-6, with their most recent victory coming against Army in a close 28-21 game. The Panthers have shown flashes of potential throughout the season, but inconsistency has plagued them. Their offense, led by quarterback Cornelious Brown IV, has shown the ability to put up points, but their defense has struggled to stop opposing teams.
On the other hand, UConn has had a tough season so far, with a record of 1-7. The Huskies have struggled on both sides of the ball, ranking near the bottom in both offensive and defensive categories. However, they have shown improvement in recent games, including a close loss to Middle Tennessee State.
In terms of odds, Georgia State is currently favored to win the game by 7 points. This means that if you were to bet on Georgia State, they would need to win by more than 7 points for you to win your bet. On the other hand, if you were to bet on UConn, they would need to either win the game or lose by less than 7 points for you to win your bet.
In terms of picks, it’s tough to say who will come out on top in this game. Georgia State has shown more consistency throughout the season, but UConn has shown improvement in recent games. Ultimately, I would lean towards Georgia State winning this game, but it could be a close contest.
Overall, the Georgia State vs UConn game on November 1st is shaping up to be an interesting matchup. With odds favoring Georgia State and both teams looking to improve their records, it will be a game worth watching. Whether you’re a fan of either team or just looking to make a bet, this game is sure to provide some excitement.
