Athlon Sports picks ECU in middle of AAC pack

by | Jun 9, 2025

More college football teams and conference previews are showing up on the web.

Over the weekend, we showed you the first East Carolina football preview as College Football News broke down the Pirates. Now, Athlon Sports is out with its take on the AAC and where ECU will finish.

Steven Lassan wrote that as many as six teams could win the AAC this season with Tulane, Navy, UTSA, Memphis, Army and South Florida likely to duke it out.

So, where does that leave the rest of the AAC and, in particular, ECU? Lassan has the Pirates seventh in the league, with North Texas right behind.
