The Cougars are single-digit favorites according to the perpetual underestimators crunching numbers in Las Vegas. Betting lines opened with BYU as six-point favorites. Since then, the number has crept up to seven and a half points.
And as Ron Swanson emphatically declared seeing the flag at half mast in mourning of the departed Lil' Sebastion, I weave my voice with his in saying: "[East Carolina's odds at winning] are too high. Show some [darn] respect."
But just as we can take comfort in the fact that Lil' Sebastian is now living in paradise, Cougar fans can likewise enjoy some peace during the tumultuous emotional vortex consuming their cravings for college football by remembering that BYU football has looked strong in two games of sample.
The Cougars' defense has allowed only three points on the season, and been a stifling force against every team's running attack. ECU will be forced to be one-dimentional through the air. That's where this team is dangerous, however, as the Pirates managed a 38-0 win in last week's action against Coastal Carolina.
That's a pretty fun dynamic, and this should be a fun football game. No wonder you've read this far into the article.
