Result:
LOSS

The Central Florida Knights were 0-12 just two years ago, and have been rebuilt at warp speed. They will enter this game at 4-0 and are a legit candidate to win the AAC, and maybe a prime Bowl bid. Before that happens there are a lot of games left. The offense has been nearly flawless, and the ECU defense is very poor. They allowed 23 points to Cincinnati last week in a game shortened by lightning, and East Carolina has been good at one thing - putting up some points. They were just a 25-point dog at West Virginia, and 21.5 vs. South Florida, so I think this one is way too high. No disrespect for Central Florida, but with tough games on deck vs. Navy and SMU, I don't think the starters will play the full 60 minutes, nor will the "A" game last more than a quarter or two once they see they have this one in hand. Take the points on Eastern Carolina.
