Pirates head from tough home-stand to tougher road trip

After their sixth straight home loss, and fourth this season, the East Carolina University Pirates (1-5, 1-2 AAC) will take a roadtrip to Orlando to face one of the best conference teams, Central Florida. No. 22 UCF is poised to make a run for a major bowl game after its first 4-0 start since 1988.

Last Saturday, the Pirates took on a average Temple team, who did not skip a beat, in their back to back conference wins against the Pirates. The Owl’s came to Greenville and beat the Pirates in every facet of the game on their way to a 34-10 victory.
