Bad matchup for Old Dominion for their first Sun Belt road test. Since the opening win against a Virginia Tech team with a bad offense, the Monarchs have been underwhelming.
ODU is 115th in total offense and 118th in total defense. Their key to winning the two games they won was winning the turnover battle. Coastal Carolina is 11th in the nation in positive turnover margin. The Monarchs also cannot run the ball at all, and the Chanticleers defend it well. ODU will not be able to keep up, Coastal Carolina wins by at least 14.
