East Carolina Pirates at South Carolina Gamecocks (Saturday/4:00 pm)

Like Western Michigan, the Pirates have already knocked off one Power Five school after taking down NC State at home last week. The win was East Carolina’s sixth straight against ACC competition, and now they’ll try to add an SEC takedown to their season resume when they head to Columbia to take on South Carolina.

The Gamecocks barely beat Vanderbilt in their conference opener, and suffered their first loss to Mississippi State last weekend in a game that was never really close. Two years ago ECU lost 33-23 at South Carolina, and this could be their best chance to exact revenge for that defeat.
