Boston College vs Notre Dame Prediction
I’m not running to the window to lay chalk with a Notre Dame team that’s 0-4 SU and ATS in its last 4 games. However, the Irish have done a fine job of winning the games they’re supposed to win this season. It was an underdog in all four of those games. Even with recent upsets over Pitt and Syracuse, Boston College remains a bottom feeder in the ACC and struggles to score the ball most nights. Boston College is also 7-12 ATS on the season, while Notre Dame is 10-9 ATS. I’ll lay the points with the Irish.
