East Carolina at Marshall

March 2, 2014

2:00 PM Eastern

East Carolina is 3-7 on the road and has not had a good season in conference play, just 5-9 in Conference USA. They just won three in a row, but that was all at home. They've lost five of their last six road games by 2, 18, 17, 14, and 11 points. Marshall is back home for the last two games of the regular season. The Herd’s Kareem Canty (16.4 points per game) and 6-5 Ryan Taylor (13.3 points per game, seven rebouns per game) are both in the top 15 of C-USA scorers, and are one of two freshman duos ranked in the top 15 in scoring in a league. The Thundering Herd is an excellent bounce back team, 5-0 ATS in their last five games following a spread loss. Home court has been huge in this series with the home team 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings, plus the Pirates are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings in Marshall. Marshall leads the all-time series, 13-7, and boasts a 9-1 record against the Pirates in Huntington, so the value here is the home team to win the game. Play Marshall on the money line.

Marshall at East Carolina

March 9, 2013

5:00 PM Eastern

East Carolina has not enjoyed a lot of success on the hardwood over the years, but are having a banner year by their own standards at 17-11 on the season. They have gotten there by scheduling four automatic wins vs. obscure non-Div-1 programs, and have added six wins by 6 points or less to the total, so 10 of the 17 wins were a bit cloudy. Marshall is just 13-17, but did take a much more aggressive approach to their out-of-conference slate. The Pirates also have a lot of ugly to deal with here, as in their 17-48-4 ATS mark in their last 69 games at home vs. a team with a losing record. This one stands to be close, so the points rule. Take the road team.
