LA Monroe needs to win some games and had a challenging schedule early playing Oklahoma, Baylor and Wake Forest so their strength of schedule is obviously much tougher than Troy's scheduling of Miss State and Duke. Both teams are top 30 in passing play % so it's going to come down to both QB's and who can make more plays. For Troy they go up against a team that's ranked 29th in opposing QB rating with 118 and limited their last 3 opponents to a 94.2 and are 9th in opposing QB rating. Meanwhile Troy is ranked 114th.
Troy is also 4-10 ATS in their last 14 home games while LA Monroe is 9-3 ATS int heir last 12 road games.
