EAST CAROLINA +13.5

I personally bought the hook here for this 1* release, as having +14 forces VTech to win by THREE scores to beat us. However, if you can't buy a hook, I do like this play at +13.5 or +13.

This is NO doubt E.Carolina's biggest game of the year and they are coming in with 9 days of rest too. For Virginia Tech, they lost their 3rd game last week, officially eliminating them from any type of BCS contention or big bowl game, and clearly they are in a letdown spot here tonight. VTech is also having trouble scoring of late. VTech scored just 17 last game vs. UNC, and of their 4 games where they cracked 30 points, only 1 of those games was on the road. East Carolina usually plays up to their competition as well, as they are 7-3 ATS last 10 games vs. a team with a winning record, & I really like this spot for East Carolina tonight, in a game thats closer than most people think it will be tonight. We have a Home Dog on Thursday Night getting over double digits vs a team who just had their seasons goal wiped away, and they will be in a hostile enviroment vs a team playing their BIGGEST game of the year. Grab the points with East Carolina tonight & look for a one score game here tonight.

Way too many points here for a team with a broken TYROD trying to motor on the road and cover vs inspired ECU.
