Mike Houston has East Carolina heading in the right direction in his fourth year as coach as the Pirates are 6-3 and on a three-game winning streak after beating BYU 27-24 two weeks ago. Holton Ahlers completed 15 of 22 for 197 yards and Keaton Mitchell ran for 176 yards on 21 carries as the Pirates displayed a balanced offense while racking up 424 total yards against the Cougars. Cincinnati rebounded from a loss at Central Florida with a 20-10 victory over Navy, but the Bearcats have been money burners this season with a 2-6-1 ATS record, including 0-4-1 ATS their past five games and they rushed for only 55 yards against the Midshipmen. East Carolina has gone UNDER its last two games by an average of nearly 15 points and Cincinnati has stayed UNDER five straight, including by 13.5 points against Navy. The Pirates are 12-4-1 ATS their past 17 games against teams with winning records and they have covered six of their past eight road contests. The Bearcats are 18-8 UNDER after an ATS loss and 12-3-2 UNDER after rushing for fewer than 100 yards their previous game. The Pirates have had extra time to prepare for this one and we're looking for the outright win. Take East Carolina on the moneyline and the UNDER.

Pro Picks
East Carolina at Cincinnati
The Cincinnati Bearcats have had a great season at 9-2. They are in a tough spot here as they put it all on the line last week vs. unbeaten Central Florida but came up short, losing 38-13. It was their second loss of the season so a big Bowl game is probably not in the cards for them anymore, while a win would have put them in a good spot to get the coveted G6 Bowl game. I think that Cincinnati will be flat here vs. an opponent that is just 3-7 on the season. East Carolina has slowly improved this season and has covered two straight games and I think they are capable of staying inside a big number vs. an unmotivated opponent. Play on East Carolina.
