Boston College Eagles vs Syracuse Orange Picks
Boston College vs Syracuse Spread Pick
- Boston College -3 (5 units)
The Eagles and the Orange are both desperate for a win to end the year. They are both struggling with long losing streaks. Syracuse has only played worse with their offense not being able to score any points and move the ball. With a freshman quarterback, Syracuse is also missing its top running back for most of the month. Both circumstances have made Syracuse one of the worst teams in the nation, along with a defense that is allowing over 38 points per game. Boston College hasn’t been much better, but they have improved slightly. They are coming off a 2-point loss to Georgia Tech, while they have suffered two other single-digit defeats. This is a game between two poor teams, but give me the offense that can score points, and that’s Boston College.
Take Boston College to cover.
