A pair of teams that prefer a slow, defensive approach. East Carolina has allowed 55 and 48 points in two of its last four games, and lost both, but they covered both as double-digit dogs. The Pirates are on a 9-3 ATS run on the road, including 8-3 ATS as a road underdog. Connecticut continues to be overvalued, losing two in a row and six of eight while on a 5-11 spread run. The Huskies are off a 20-point defeat at SMU, and the team is 7-18-1 ATS following a straight up loss. Play East Carolina.
