Navy Midshipmen at East Carolina Pirates
I give full credit to ECU for not getting embarrassed on the road against a very good South Florida team. That said, they’re on a four game losing streak straight up and against the spread and while they have played a tougher schedule than the Midshipmen, the visitor has only one loss on the year against an Air Force team that would destroy the Pirates. The line is a manageable -3, so will back the team that has proven that it can get the W for a small play.
Take the Navy Midshipmen -3
