Premium Pick

East Carolina is 3-7 on the road and has not had a good season in conference play, just 5-9 in Conference USA. They just won three in a row, but that was all at home. They've lost five of their last six road games by 2, 18, 17, 14, and 11 points. Marshall is back home for the last two games of the regular season. The Herd’s Kareem Canty (16.4 points per game) and 6-5 Ryan Taylor (13.3 points per game, seven rebouns per game) are both in the top 15 of C-USA scorers, and are one of two freshman duos ranked in the top 15 in scoring in a league. The Thundering Herd is an excellent bounce back team, 5-0 ATS in their last five games following a spread loss. Home court has been huge in this series with the home team 4-0 ATS in the last four meetings, plus the Pirates are 1-4 ATS in the last five meetings in Marshall. Marshall leads the all-time series, 13-7, and boasts a 9-1 record against the Pirates in Huntington, so the value here is the home team to win the game. Play Marshall on the money line.
