Boston College Winning Ugly

The Boston College Eagles are holding a record of 4-1 going into this weekend, including a 1-0 mark in the ACC. The Eagles have won two non-conference games in a row against Michigan State and Western Kentucky, both of which were defensive struggles where BC won while scoring in the mid-20s. This week, Boston College would be content to win again even if it's not in an aesthetically pleasing fashion. But some better play by the offense would certainly be a goal of head coach Bill O'Brien going into this week.

A Nice Start For Virginia

The Virginia Cavaliers are 3-1 to start this season, including 1-0 in ACC play. Their conference win came over Wake Forest on the road, which is not all that impressive a win based on how poorly the Demon Deacons have played so far in 2024. But Virginia's most recent win was a non-conference victory over Coastal Carolina on the road, which is somewhat impressive on the teal turf near Myrtle Beach. Virginia's offense had its best showing of the season against the Chanticleers, scoring 43 points and racking up 525 yards of offense. The Cavaliers will hope to replicate that performance here to move to 2-0 in conference play.

Boston College vs Virginia Best Bet

While Virginia is coming off of an impressive offensive performance in their last outing, Boston College has proven that they are not as easy to move the ball against as Coastal Carolina was. In this Boston College vs Virginia matchup, we will take BC to get the job done in a game where both teams are looking to stay perfect in conference play with a potential spot in the top-25 on the line for the winner.
