East Carolina vs FAU Prediction
FAU is the more talented team and has been strong at home this season, but this is a lot of points for an early start. East Carolina doesn’t do much of anything great and has some ugly performances, but it also just beat North Texas on the road as a double-digit underdog. East Carolina hung around with USF, nearly beat UAB, and gave Temple a slight scare. ECU has had moments where it’s shown it can compete against stiffer competition. It won’t be pretty, but I’ll grab the points with East Carolina if forced to pick.
