    East Carolina -7.5 over Middle Tennessee Saturday

    I know, -7.5 road favorite inside conference, blah blah blah. But I think at the end of the year, we will look back and say this line should have been -10. East Carolina went on the road the last two weeks vs. the ACC, and first almost beat Virginia Tech before suffering their only loss of the year 15-10 and then they destroyed North Carolina 55-31 while piling up over 600 yards at Chapel Hill in a game that was not even as close as the score. MTSU is also 1-0 in Conference USA, but they beat a Florida Atlantic team that is making the same transition from the Sun Belt as the Blue Raiders are. MTSU did not look good vs. BYU in non-conference play last week and, while obviously the transitive property isn't always meaningful, they lost at North Carolina 40-20 earlier in the season, the same UNC team ECU just dismantled on the same field.

    ECU has way too many playmakers for Middle Tenn. I don't see anyone in conference other than Marshall hanging with them. There defense is much improved over past years and I agree 7.5 seems like a great opportunity to ca$h in. Go Pirates !

    These aren't the type of games that land on key numbers anyway. I like ECU here too.

    Yes 4 Sun Belt teams moved to C-USA: MTSU, FAU, FIU and I think North Texas?

    thanks, i knew teams moved just can't remember which... sun belt was great "out of conference" ATS. CUSA just seems to define "treading water" (at best)

    Bet the ML on East Carolina. Take a nap and wake up in a few hours to get paid. Thank me later. No need to get stressed on whether the -7.5 will be covered.
