This is an 8* play on East Carolina.

We don't subscribe to any single handicapping methodology, but instead feel that being flexible with ones approach is the best way to secure profits over the longterm. Sometimes we keep it simple, while other times we'll take into account numerous different factors, like motivation, scheduling and significant injuries. Recognizing classic "spot bets" is something we always do as well, IE: the "look ahead" spot, the "let down" spot and the "trap" game. One set of criteria which we always use when making our decisions are Against The Spread (ATS) statistics. This particular play is based primarily on strong/relevant ATS statistics:

As note that ODU comes in off a big upset over VT and we think it's ripe for the picking here in this classic "letdown" spot. Note as well that ECU is 3-1 ATS in its last four as a home favorite in the 3.5 to seven points range. Lay the points, play on ECU.
