East Carolina Pirates vs Alabama Crimson Tide — Sep 5, 2026

September 5 · 12:00 PM EDT
ALA -27.5 · O/U 52.5

Pirates roll into Bryant-Denny riding momentum

East Carolina arrives having gone 4-1 over its last five, with the only blemish surrounded by wins. That kind of form makes the Pirates a live matchup against an Alabama team that's split its own recent stretch at 3-2.

  • Alabama's recent form of L-W-L-W-W shows a team that's alternated wins and losses before settling into a two-game winning stretch, a contrast to East Carolina's steadier climb into this one.

Each side's most recent results, newest first, with the score and who they played. These reach back into last season where a club has not played five yet, which is why every row carries its date.

Standings

Where each side sits in its own conference, with both clubs marked. These two are in different ones, so the tables are separate and the records are not directly comparable.

The favourite's chance is de-vigged: the two sides of a price add up to more than a whole, and that excess is the book's fee rather than anyone's opinion, 3.0% on this game.

The second number is CollegeFootballData's own model, not ours, priced against ALA -28.5. It is here so the market has something independent to be read against: where the two agree that is worth knowing, and where they disagree that is worth knowing more.
