Boston Univ. vs Holy Cross Prediction
Boston Univ. hasn’t had much success on the road this season and has failed to cover 5 of its last 6 games. That includes bad losses to Lehigh and Loyola MD. This is not a team heading in the right direction. Holy Cross has lost 5 straight games, but it was the underdog in all 5 of those games, so let’s shoot this team some bail. Holy Cross also had chances to beat Army and Colgate on the road, so there should be some sort of confidence coming back home. Two subpar teams. I’ll take my chances with Holy Cross and the free bucket.
