Boston College Football vs. Notre Dame: Betting Preview & Prediction
What to Watch For
- Pray. Maybe that won’t work against the only other Catholic football school. But BC will likely need some divine intervention to win this one. Notre Dame has had let down losses before, so it’s not impossible, but highly unlikely.
- Drink. Once the score gets out of reach, you may want to get a buzz on.
- Can Mason McKenzie make something happen? McKenzie has looked pretty good as the season has progressed. He’s making better reads downfield and his running ability is as good as it’s ever been. Going against this ND defense is going to be a big test though – how will he stack up against NFL level talent?
Prediction: Notre Dame 42 Boston College 17
This would
have to be a trap game for the Irish, no doubt, and BC’s defense doesn’t seem like they will be able to secure the upset. The Eagles gave up 31 points to FSU and 47 points to Duke in the past two weeks, while Notre Dame is rolling with a lot of momentum right now. Maybe Boston College can give them a bit of a scare in the first half, but I’d be very surprised if it was a close game entering the 4th quarter. More likely than not, it will be a blowout by halftime.
