FAU vs East Carolina Prediction
Give me East Carolina here as they are going to get one game closer to bowl eligibility. East Carolina really impressed in the last game scoring 56 points and their offense is going to continue success here. FAU’s offense has been inconsistent, but their defense isn’t going to be good here, and that is going to be enough for the Pirates to get the job done. Back East Carolina against the spread.
