Dartmouth vs Boston College Prediction
I’m not running to the window to lay big numbers with a below-average ACC team in the Boston College Eagles, but I want less to do with Dartmouth. The Dartmouth Big Green don’t play defense and don’t cover numbers in the underdog role. Boston College has covered 4 of its last 5 games, for what that’s worth. Potential look-ahead spot for Boston College with South Carolina and Wake Forest on deck, but I can’t get there with Dartmouth. I’ll lay the points with BC.
