I get that Holy Cross is bad, but this feels like too many points for BU to cover at home. The Crusaders are 7-3 ATS in their last 10 road games vs. a team with a winning home record. The Terriers are 1-3-1 ATS in their last 5 games following a ATS win and are 1-5 ATS in their last 6 home games vs. a team with a losing road record. BU definitely wins, but I’ll take the points with Holy Cross.
