Boston College Eagles at Wake Forest Demon Deacons Prediction
Wake Forest is on a roll with three straight wins including quality wins over Louisville and Virginia Tech. They do face at outmatched opponent, but I just can't lay double digits. That said, I do like the total line. Boston College has scored an average of 65.8 points in their four neutral site games and think that's in the range that they'll their scoring will land today. Wake has averaged 82.1 points overall and while they have tallied 86 points per game in their three neutral site games that total was inflated by the 103 that they hung on Texas-El Paso.
