So, based on that the score should be: USF 51 ECU 28. http://www.vegasinsider.com/college-football/teams/team-page.cfm/team/south-florida JK story: ...The breakdown: The Pirates, dead last in Division I in total defense (624.8 ypg) ...Problem is, the Pirates can't run the ball (105.5 ypg -- 115th nationally) or stop the run (274.5 ypg -- 123rd nationally). Fact is, they're the only team in Division I allowing more than 600 yards a game. As if to compound their misery, they rank 119th in the country in turnover margin (minus-1.50). http://www.tampabay.com/blogs/bulls/know-the-foe-east-carolina/2338871 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play good enough for Brett Kean to get into the game for the entire 4th quarter. ECU is not a good team even compared to the teams USF has defeated earlier this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes more since than the scores I pick out of thin air. I don't post in the prediction threads. However, shortly after I posted that, someone predicted almost the identical scores. Of course, that just might have been a coincidence. LOL Edited September 27, 2017 by Mama_Bull Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't we just be good at something without having to suck immediately afterwards? You do know there are teams out there who are just good, and we're one of them. Accept it and be happy! All I said is that we could give up more points than folks think. Not that we'd lose (although I suppose anything is possible). I do think we're good. I'm just not certain than we can keep ECU three touchdowns away from us, that's all. Maybe we can. We'll see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that ECU might be a decent offensive team? Face palm all you want. ECU looked like a decent offensive team against UCONN. Yes, it's UCONN, I get it. But if our offense is out of rhythm (again) and our defense has an off game (keeping in mind that ECU is better offensively than Temple, and recency bias is a thing), then I could see USF failing to cover 23 points, at ECU.
