COLLEGE FOOTBALL FREE PICK: East Carolina is 4-1 ATS L5 in series. SC is 5-13 ATS L18 after allowing less than 20pts previous game. Last year, South Carolina defeated ECU, 56-37 in Charlotte, but didn’t cover the 21. East Carolina opened with a tough FCS opponent in Appalachian State and dominated them, 35-13. The question mark is the ECU secondary, which allowed 300 yards against Appy State. But they will put some points on the board and South Carolina is not a pass-happy team. ECU is led by new quarterback Rio Johnson, who completed 28-of-43 passes for 242 yards and 2 TD passes.
