Appalachian State got pummeled by Clemson on Saturday, but the Mountaineers still are favored in this game as they match up much better against East Carolina, which is coming off a 2-10 season. The Pirates are 2-0 with wins against FCS Norfolk State and Old Dominion, but the Mountaineers will provide a stiffer challenge. Appalachian State QB Joey Aguilar struggled against the Tigers completing 18 of 41 for 214 yards and a touchdown. Running back Anderson Castle ran for 80 yards on 11.4 per carry. East Carolina was down 7-6 at the half against the Monarchs before pulling out a 20-14 win. Jake Garcia completed 25 of 38 for 283 yards, but with no TDs and four interceptions. The Pirates won't be so fortunate this week and Appalachian State is 7-0 ATS its past seven games coming off a double-digit loss and 9-2 ATS after allowing more than 35 points. East Carolina is 5-0 UNDER after yielding fewer than 100 yards rushing its previous game and 5-0 UNDER after an ATS win. The Pirates have gone UNDER four straight as underdogs. Take Appalachian State and the UNDER.
