East Carolina looks to correct a quirk in its series history against Temple on Saturday at 3 p.m. in Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium. The Pirates (4-4, 2-2 AAC) have never beaten the Owls (3-5, 1-3) at home in three meetings while both have been American Athletic Conference members.

Temple is reeling having lost its last three straight entering Saturday’s game by an average score of 45-8. A win would give the Pirates a four-game home winning streak in AAC play, which would be their longest ever.

Saturday’s ECU-Temple game can only be watched through streaming on ESPN+. The game is also available to ESPN+ subscribers via the ESPN App and ESPN.com. The link to watch it is here.
