He has thrown for four touchdowns and nearly 1,000 yards this season, but he is only completing 55% of his passes. Burton has also thrown five interceptions this year, so he will need to protect the ball tonight. East Carolina has a 3-2 record this year, and the team is coming off a 28-12 win against Rice. During the victory, running back TJ Engleman Jr. led the East Carolina offense. He rushed for a touchdown and nearly 150 yards, while also averaging nine yards per carry.
