ECU @ Army: total = 51 and ECU has dominated in the last 2 years

[BigGamesOnly]

ECU avgs. 10 points per game while Army avgs. 14 points per game. Both schools give up quite a bit on defense though. ECU giving up 440 ypg and 36 ppg. Army gives up 470 ypg and 37 ppg.

Can these 2 weak offenses take advantage of the weak defenses? Can Army score efficiently with their program in turmoil or will their new coach inspire them?

I lean toward the UNDER 51 in this contest due to the lack of offensive skills.

I see in the last 2 years that ECU has handled Army well beating them 59-24 last year and 49-26 in 2001. I lean toward ECU.

it doesn't make any sense since they have scored over 70 past 2 yrs.

You make a valid point qwerty. I just think neither of these teams have the offense that they had last year.

Line is down to 48 now.

ECU actually should have won that game last week vs. UNC. Their offense actually moved the ball pretty well and I think they cover this game. Only concern is the possible new coach inspiration for Army, but I like ECU here.

The new coach is my concern as well Fats. Too much uncertainty here for me to bet much on this game.

If ECU could have beat UNC last week that would tell me that a bet on Arizona St. v. UNC would be the way to go.

Thanks for the input.
