Boston College Looking to Reach .500 In ACC Play

The Boston College Eagles got a win over Syracuse in their last outing, snapping a three-game losing streak. While the BC defense was suspect in that game, allowing 31 points, their offense finally woke up with a 37-point performance. This week, BC will need its defense to show up if it wants to have a chance of upsetting SMU and making it to the six-win mark to become bowl-eligible.

SMU Still With Conference Title Aspirations

This season has been simply incredible for the SMU Mustangs. They are 8-1 overall and 5-0 in the ACC, putting them in first place in the conference standings. Their only loss has come to a BYU team that is undefeated this year and is also in the running for the College Football Playoff. But SMU can’t afford to pat itself on the back just yet, as it needs to slow down Boston College after their offensive explosion last week against Syracuse.

Boston College vs SMU Betting Pick

We will lay the points with the SMU Mustangs in this weekend’s Boston College vs SMU matchup. The Mustangs dominated both sides of the ball against Pitt in their last outing. Now, SMU comes off of an idle week and is at a rest advantage against a BC team that has struggled a bit on defense during conference play. Expect all of that to work in the favor of the home team.
