Boston College Eagles vs Virginia Cavaliers prediction
The Virginia Cavaliers are the better team and have the rest advantage, but this line is telling you all you need to know. Virginia still goes through droughts offensively, and it leads to close games and upset losses at times. Boston College took Virginia down to the wire a couple of weeks ago, losing by four points as a one point favorite. Boston College is coming off two tournament wins as an underdog, and those sorts of performances do wonders for the confidence. It's March baby. We see Cinderella runs every year. Give me Boston College and the points.
