Our college football expert predictions expect Boston College to keep this one closer than the number when they meet the SMU Mustangs.
The SMU Mustangs will try to remain undefeated in ACC play as they host the Boston College Eagles this afternoon.
That’s not to overstate how good the Eagles are. At 5-4, they’re a pretty mediocre FBS team and have little chance of beating SMU outright. But they match up reasonably well in the right areas in order to make this a game. SMU may well surpass that, getting near their average of 40.1 ppg. But they won’t simply roll over Boston College, which has shown a good ability to stay in games behind quarterback Thomas Castellanos, who has tossed 18 touchdowns this year. SMU is a terror against the run, allowing just 2.8 yards per rush, but can be vulnerable at times through the air.
Boston College covered in the only recent meeting between these teams, beating the Mustangs outright as a 13.5-point underdog in a 23-14 win last December. His betting strategy focuses more on finding line value based on deviations from the market rather than traditional handicapping, primarily shopping between DraftKings, FanDuel, and Fanatics in his home state of Connecticut, though he’s not afraid to do deep game analysis to find profitable bets at any book.
