Randy’s Pick
I'm not running to the window to back the East Carolina Pirates, but it beats the alternative. The Georgia Southern Eagles have done nothing offensively, and they're not only winless on the season, but they're 0-4 ATS as well. Georgia Southern just got its boots smoked by Jacksonville. It allowed 96 points in a loss to Kennesaw State. Nothing else needs to be said here. The Georgia Southern Eagles are terrible. Give me ECU and whatever the line is.
Randy’s Pick East Carolina Pirates ATS
