East Carolina vs Coastal Carolina TicketSmarter Birmingham Bowl, What’s Going To Happen

It might have to be the Coastal Carolina defense that handles most of the work. The Chanticleer offense will hardly be its normal self – the offensive line is going to struggle against the East Carolina defensive front – but the D should be active enough to make an impact.

East Carolina will play with a bit more fire and energy. It’ll make up for the big plays it’ll allow down the field with steady play on offense. It might not always be about fireworks with what the Pirates will do, but they’ll be balanced and will win both the penalty and turnover battle.

East Carolina is 7-0 when scoring more than 27 points. Coastal Carolina allowed 27 points or more seven times.
