East Carolina vs UAB Picks & Props
ECU vs UAB Picks
NCAAF PicksEast Carolina is my favorite side in this matchup, laying 4.5 points on the road against UAB. The Pirates have the defensive chops to slow down the Blazers, who have struggled through the air and dealt with turnover issues. Keep an eye on the line, as a move to -3 would be ideal.
The Pirates have one of the fastest-tempo offenses in college football, averaging 23.25 seconds per play, which ranks ninth nationally. They rank fifth nationally in seconds per play across their first three drives, showing just how quickly East Carolina wants to get things moving. The goal is to exhaust opponents as quickly as possible. I leaned toward the first-half under, but with how fast the Pirates will want to come out of the gate, getting in and getting out with East Carolina is the move in the first half.
Both offenses lean heavily on the run, setting up a clock-chewing affair. East Carolina and UAB also face tough pass defenses, while the Blazers have struggled with turnovers, as Ryder Burton has thrown an interception in five of six games. I like the under 47.5, but wouldn't play it lower.
Backing the favorite while rooting for no points to be scored is already a sweat, but combo all three of these looks together and you're getting nearly 5.25x. For a little Thursday night sweat, that's well worth the squeeze!
