BYU -3 3.3% PLAY
Can’t really compare the strength of schedules here. East Carolina’s only P5 opponent was NC State to open the season, while BYU has faced Arkansas, Notre Dame, Oregon, Baylor, and then a very good Liberty team. East Carolina also getting a bit more love than they should after beating UCF last week 34-13. UCF likely looking ahead to this week’s game vs. Cincinnati and were -4 TO margin in the game. This is a short week traveling to play at elevation, while BYU will be desperate for a win. Should be a good game, but BYU has an excellent home field advantage. Their only loss at home was against Arkansas at home. Jaren Hall has been amazing at home in his career 24 passing TD’s and just 4 Int’s and will be going up against East Carolina pass defense that ranks 117th. Perfect buy low / sell high situation here after BYU lost big on the road last week, and will be desperate for a win to get to bowl game this year.
