East Carolina vs UTSA Prediction


UTSA is at home and needs one more win to clinch a bowl berth, so I can understand why oddsmakers are showing them some love. However, this line is soft. East Carolina is simply the better team playing the better football. East Carolina has a top-20 total offense and should have a field day against a UTSA squad that’s 112th in scoring defense. UTSA is 4-8 ATS in its last 12 games as an underdog. I’m not getting enough points to step in front of an ECU squad playing its best ball of the season. Give me East Carolina and the small number.

Randy Chambers's Pick: East Carolina -2.5
