East Carolina University’s football team traveled to the University of Memphis for the final game of the 2017 season Saturday and were destroyed, 70-13.
The Pirates (3-9, 2-6 AAC) gave up 70 points, ending the season on a low note and now head into the offseason with major questions.
The Tigers (10-1, 7-1 AAC) scored on every single possession, except the final drive running the clock out. NFL-hopeful quarterback Riley Ferguson didn't have a heavy workload but was successful when he was called upon to air it out, completing nine out of 13 passing attempts for 299 yards and three touchdowns.
