The East Carolina University (3-3, 0-2 AAC) football team will continue conference play on Saturday when it travels to Orlando, Florida to face the University of Central Florida (4-2, 1-1 AAC).
Meeting for the 18th time since 1991, Saturday night’s game will pit two statistically opposed programs against each other. While the Pirates have won 10 of the 17 previous contests, the Knights rank as one of the best offensive teams in the country this season.
Picked to win the American conference during the preseason, UCF has picked up right where it left off in 2018. After riding a powerful offense to an undefeated regular season, the Knights will enter Saturday’s contest with the fifth best scoring offense in the country, averaging 44.
