Week number nine of the college football season rolls on with a solid mid major matchup as Jacksonville State hits the road to play Florida International here on Wednesday night. Despite being technically ineligible to compete for a conference championship and a bowl game this season Jacksonville State is still putting together a fantastic first year in the FBS and Florida international has been sharing together, some victories, late in the season as they look to get bowl eligible themselves with about four games remaining in the year.
Jacksonville State comes into this game with six victories to their name on the season, which would technically make them one went away from being eligible to compete in a bowl game this season, but because of their transitional period they will not be doing so this year. Regardless of that they will still be looking to make their first season in the FBS memorable one by racking up victories over some stalwart FBS teams, and they have another opportunity to do that here on Wednesday night as they look for a massive road victory against Florida International.
Jacksonville State comes into this Game On a one game-winning streak after they knocked off Western Kentucky by three points last weekend, and it was a solid way for them to bounce back after their second loss of the season to Liberty two weeks ago. They have already picked up four victories in conference play and despite being ineligible for the conference championship game, they could still potentially win a regular season conference championship, but they would need Liberty to lose two conference games because they do not own the tiebreaker.

Florida International is having a decent season and they come into this game looking to pick up their fifth victory of the season as they try to work their way towards playing in a bowl game this year. They cannot afford to drop many more games with only four games remaining on their schedule as their next three losses would make them bowl ineligible and they will be searching for their fifth victory of the year here in this game against a very solid Jacksonville State team on Wednesday night at home.
They sit in the middle of the pack of the conference standings and it seems highly unlikely that they will make a conference title game unless they win the remaining games on their schedule and that will have to start here and this one at home on Wednesday evening as they will look the challenge what seems to be liberty in the Conference USA championship game if they get that far along. Florida International is coming off of a victory in their previous game, and they will be looking to make it. Two wins in a row with a victory over Jacksonville State here on Wednesday night at home as I looked to pick up their fifth victory of the season.
Betting trends to consider in this matchup:
- Jacksonville State is 3-0 as a favorite this season
- Jacksonville State is 3-2 after a win this season
- Jacksonville State is 2-1 on the road this season
I expect this to be a solid high scoring game, but in the end I look for the FBS newcomer Jacksonville State to pick up the victory over Florida International here on Wednesday night on the road. Jacksonville State arguably has one of the best offensive units in the entire conference, and I expect that to heavily impact the outcome of this game on Wednesday night as I look for them to simply outscore Florida International and pick up a much-needed victory here on Wednesday in week nine of the season.
