Live scores, highlights and updates from the East Carolina vs. Campbell football game

The Campbell Fighting Camels are staying on the road on Saturday to face off against the East Carolina Pirates at 6 p.m. ET Sept. 17 at Dowdy-Ficklen Stadium. East Carolina will be strutting in after a win while the Fighting Camels will be stumbling in from a loss.

Campbell received a tough blow last week as they fell 37-21 to the William & Mary Tribe.

Meanwhile, when you finish with 244 more yards than your opponent like the Pirates did last week, a favorable outcome is almost sure to follow. They enjoyed a cozy 39-21 victory over the Old Dominion Monarchs. The win came about even with East Carolina handicapping themselves with 85 penalty yards. Their RB Keaton Mitchell was on fire, rushing for two TDs and 160 yards on 18 carries. Mitchell put himself on the highlight reel with an 81-yard TD scramble in the fourth quarter.

East Carolina's defense was a presence as well, as it got past Old Dominion's offensive line to sack QB Hayden Wolff four times for a total loss of 24 yards. It was a group effort with five guys contributing.

Campbell's defeat took them down to 1-1 while East Carolina's victory pulled them up to 1-1. We'll see if the Fighting Camels can steal the Pirates' luck or if East Carolina records another victory instead.
