East Carolina plus 9.5
Yes, they have only won one game this year, but they are playing better. There is extra motivation for them to finish the season with a win for the new coach.
Tulune has one of the softest defenses in the nation. (Normally, I think it is always good value to go against teams with extremely weak defenses laying more than a TD) ECU should be able to run on them. Further, Tulane's top running back, Moore, is out for the season and he was a big part of the offense in both the running and passing game. I see no motivation for Tulane and this looks like a flat spot for them to finish the season. They played Southern Miss fairly close last week, and I do not see a lot of emotion left for them in preparing for ECU.
