These two teams split their regular season series, with Boston College winning 69-56 and Pittsburgh winning 69-67. Both of these teams come into this game on a losing streak, but will try to win five games in five days for a berth in the NCAA Tournament. These two teams are very similar and the game could go either way. I am taking the point or two with Pittsburgh.
