East Carolina

[jacobkdoyle]

Game is Saturday at 7 PM on CBS Sports.

East Carolina is 2-4 with wins vs Western Carolina (52-7) and NC State (33-30). They have lost 4 in a row though...@ South Carolina (20-15), @ Va Tech (54-17), vs UCF (47-29), and @ South Florida (38-22).

They are also coming off of a Bye.

No Line yet. Honestly hard to guess at this point. I'll say UC -7.5.

I have zero expectations anymore.

East Carolina 30
UC 20

 

[UCalum08]

I think we lose. I'll say

ECU-24
UC-17

I don't know much about ECU but I know plenty about UC. We never play well after extended breaks between games. The physche of this team is really low. Honestly, I don't think our offense can win us any games the rest of the year.

Have they announced a QB?

Why would it change? Moore was back before the Bye. He has an extra week to get healthy. You think they used the Bye to make a switch?

Put me in the Pro Gunner group. I hope he starts. If the old system fits him better, adapt the system. I know it is hard to change mid- season, but Tubbs should be coaching every game like if he didn't win, it will be his last. Why are developing him
Hayden for future. Whatever gives us the best chance to win. Period

Opened -3. Already down to -2.5. Gross. East Carolina is 3-8 in their last 11 games and we're giving less than a FG at home. Embarrassing doesn't even describe it anymore.

We aren't playing for anything this year. What's the point of switching to Kiel? I feel like you're forgetting how disappointing last year was with Kiel. Not to mention he had way better WR to throw to. And the system left our defense hanging all year long. I really don't think this will help at all. I get that things are awful, but last year wasn't much better.

No B12 expansion prediction:

UC wins at home in front of less than 25k in actual attendance on homecoming.

UC - 31
ECU - 23

UC gets into the B12:

UC wins at home in front of a sold out crowd with new coach PJ Fleck at the helm

UC - 56
ECU - 10

UC is now -1.5 to Eastern Carolina. Wrap your brain around that for a minute: We are playing at home, homecoming weekend and we are basically expected to play even with a 2-4 ECU team. Embarassing on all fronts. Another game of oogling at the dance team and hitting the exits early.

Hoping we have no recruits in the stands for this game or Tuberville will be upset with the fans for booing and ruining his 70th+ ranked recruiting class.

SMH. Cant even give a score prediction. CANCUL DA SEASON!

If you spend time and or money on this game you deserve whatever happens.

 

[Patrick Bateman]

I will be there supporting the student athletes

 

[XgradforUC]

I, and all of my friends that I regularly tailgate with and attend games with, will all be there. NONE of us are happy with the state of the program, or the performance of the team. But we will still be there cheering them when they do good and hoping for better things when they don't. We attended games long before they reached the heights of the last decade, and will continue to attend games for as long as we can.

But we will be wearing black. Just because we attend doesn't mean we are happy with the way things are going.

 

[Madman81]

i will also be attending, and i will be bored out of my damn mind because each game is a miserable experience.

 

[Z-Fly]

I'll be back in Black.

Not to be pessimistic, but with road games at Temple, UCF & Tulsa and home games vs. Memphis & BYU, does anyone agree ECU is UC's best chance to win another game this year?

According to Twitter (nothing official) it looks like Gunner has finally been released from the doghouse and is starting Saturday.

Might be a little too late but I'm all for trying to win out and make a bowl game.

 

[UCalum08]

Gun show is back baby!!!

 

[beeman7467]

Why Gunner now? I am fed up with Tuberville and think the worst of him. Maybe a middle finger to the fans who have been wondering why he hasn't played, secretly hoping he bombs? Suddenly it makes sense to start him? Not buying into anything that guy does.

Right?! Our season is already wrecked. The only thing we have left is to make a non important bowl game. I hope Gunner comes back and does well which will only make TT look even worse. If we continue to do poorly, TT still looks like an idiot...

One thing is for sure, if Zac Taylor continues this lame duck offensive play calling, it won't matter who we have at QB.
