After getting my proverbial grove on, in the form of a modest three game winning streak capped off with Georgetown last night, I am releasing yet another college hoops winner. On the surface, Virginia Tech vs. Boston College appears to be a mismatch. Virginia Tech, despite coming off a hard fought loss to Duke this past Sunday, is a formidable 21-5 on the year. Meanwhile, the Eagles of Boston College are having one of their worst seasons in recent memory, sporting a subpar 13-13 record.
While running through my statistical analysis, I was looking for something that would provide Boston College with a much needed edge. Other than a 9-6 home record, there is very little to suggest the Eagles can win this game. In the last five meetings between these teams at Boston College, Virginia Tech is 4-1 against the spread. However, in many of those contests, Boston College was a high single digit favorite. One trend that kept popping up was the Under. Based on recent data, there is strong reason to believe the under will come in tonight. Going with the under, 134, I am calling for a game in the low sixties. Consider the fact that Virginia Tech is coming off a tough loss and could be dealing with blizzard conditions tonight in Boston and you have a strong case for a weak offensive output from the Hokies. Furthermore, Boston College has looked abysmal at times this season offensively. Tonight's play.....BC-Virginia Tech Under 134.
