Boston College Eagles

Boston College has a betting on NCAA Football record of 7-2 both straight up and vs. the odds.  Last week the Eagles scored a 31-21 payout at Virginia Tech.  It was the fourth consecutive cover for BC as they went under the total for the third time in that span.  Due to strong offensive line play does Boston College rank 24th in the nation for rushing.  Top back AJ Dillon is averaging 5.5 yards per carry with 897 yards and eight touchdowns. Extending BC’s success is quarterback Anthony Brown’s 16/5 touchdown to interception ratio.

Clemson Tigers

Clemson has an offshore bookmaker record of 9-0 straight up and 5-4 vs. the line with five overs.  Last Saturday was the most impressive win of the season for the Tigers.  In short, the naming of Trevor Lawrence as starting quarterback has made all the difference.  Lawrence has a 163.0 rating with 18 touchdowns and just three interceptions.  At the same time Travis Etienne has 998 rushing yards with 8.6 yards per carry and 15 TD’s.  Overall Clemson ranks fourth in the country for both scoring offense and points allowed.  Further, Coach Dabo Swinney has reached elite status.

Stats to Consider

To begin with Clemson is a strong betting value as a road chalk.  The Tigers have covered five of their last eight laying the lumber away from home.  Five of their last six in that role have gone over the total.  Additionally, Clemson has paid in four of their last five as double-digit road chalks.  Five of their last six in that situation have cleared the number.  Balanced against that is that Boston College has not lost vs. the line in four straight games as a home dog.  All four of those games went under the total.

Team vs. Team

Account of four payouts in five games against Clemson does Boston College offer potentially strong value.  BC and Clemson have split their last four games vs. the line at Alumni Stadium.  Two of the last three in this series at BC went over the total.

Matchup to Watch

Certainly, this is a big number for Clemson against a good opponent.  While Boston College is solid Clemson is way out of their league.  On the whole the Tigers should wear down BC with their elite depth.  In comparison the Eagles lack the Betting on NCAA Football firepower to last four quarters.
