East Carolina looks to keep its undefeated start to the season rolling when they host Appalachian State on Saturday afternoon. The theme is “Paint it Purple” for this home game for the Pirates. ECU cruised to victory in their opener 42-3 against Norfolk State but it wasn’t such an easy win against Old Dominion last week. The Pirates were still victorious though winning 20-14 on the road. ECU was up 17-7 in the third quarter and looked in control but Old Dominion scored a touchdown to get the game within three soon before the third quarter ended. The Pirates beared down in the fourth though and while only scoring a field goal, their defense didn’t allow another point to secure the victory. Rahjai Harris had a great day for the offense scoring two touchdowns and rushing for 131 yards while averaging five runs a carry. If the Pirates can get anywhere near that performance again from Harris they should be the favorites here at home.

Appalachian State is looking for a bounce-back victory after a very tough opponent in No. 22 Clemson, losing last week 66-20. That leaves the Mountaineers 1-1 on the season after beating ETSU in their season opener. Appalachian State had been good against power-conference opponents as those last matchups for the Mountaineers were decided by seven points or less. Anderson Castle still had a standout performance for the Mountaineers rushing for 80 yards and a touchdown despite only rushing once in the second half. The good news for Appalachian State is that its opponent tonight is a much more even matchup.
