Stonehill vs Boston College Prediction 

Boston College comes into this matchup trying to snap their three-game losing streak, but they will be at home for this game. The Eagles have scored just 66 and 51 points in their last two games and they are shooting 41.6% from the field. Stonehill has won four of their last five games, but they have been blown out by Notre Dame, Providence, and Marquette this year. I do think Boston College is going to get the win, but I think they are going to have trouble pulling away like they have had in some other non-conference games. Take the points with Stonehill.
