For College Football bettors itching for some game lines to bet on, this Grambling-Jackson State matchup is one of the best of the spring season.
While a lot of hype around Jackson State is centered around NFL Hall of Fame coach Deion Sanders, JSU sophomore quarterback Jalon Jones played well showing he can challenge a defense with not only his arm but his feet and athletic as well.
