How to make Pittsburgh vs. East Carolina picks
After simulating East Carolina vs. Pittsburgh 10,000 times, SportsLine's model is going Over on the total (51.5 points). This line has dropped 10 full points since the opener due to various injury and transfer news. That precipitous fall, however, has created value on the Over.
Five of ECU's last six games have cleared the total, while three of the past five have hit that side for Pitt. SportsLine's model is projecting 55 combined points, making the Over the value side.
The model also says one side of the spread hits over 60% of the time. You can see the model's pick at SportsLine.
