What’s Going To Happen

Georgia State was able to come up with one giant offensive performance – rolling up ULM a few weeks ago – but that’s been about it for the pop. QB Dan Ellington has helped to get things moving, but it’s asking way too much to keep up with an Arkansas State team overdue to bust out.

The big problem? The Panthers don’t have nearly enough of a pass rush. Make that, they have no pass rush – they’re last in the nation in sacks and miserable at coming up with tackles for loss.

After two straight clunker losses, and with an offense that has yet to bust out, this is it for Arkansas State. This is when it all starts to finally kick in for QB Justice Hansen and a passing game that’s struggling – and why? The pass protection isn’t there.

There are yards. There aren’t enough points.

Again, that changes this week. Georgia State has been plucky, but after doing nothing against Appalachian State the last time they were on national TV, the Red Wolves start to look the part.
