UAB vs East Carolina Prediction
East Carolina is rough offensively, and that’s not ideal when going up against the pace and scoring potential of a team like UAB. East Carolina hasn’t had any success stepping up in competition and is 3-11 ATS on the season. Basically, I have little interest in East Carolina, who is also 2-8 ATS in its last 10 games as an underdog. UAB is a profitable 9-6 ATS on the season and should be eager to rebound from a bad loss to FAU. I’ll lay the points with the Blazers on the road.
